Can people with an eating disorder or on the verge of getting one have a very bad influence on each other?
Like could someone on the verge of getting an eating disorder have a bad influence on someone with a disorder if they came into contact,or could someone who has recovered get relapse again if they came into contact with someone who had the disorder?especially as they would be looking at someone maybe much thinner than them.

I have already seeked professional help for that and I am still getting to know the psycologist.But I was reading articles about the problems with excessive exercising and i fit soooooooo many of the criteria. I have very bad short sleep I workout when I am supposed to be with friends or family I am afraid to leave my comfortable zone where I have all the foods I need and the opportunity to workout.

When i go out i feel tired and lack energy even to dance...Anyway you get the point.What are the things I can do stop speed up the treatment with the psycologist?

Am i developing an eating disorder or mental disorder?
Lately i've been feeling very down in the dumps. And very self conscious about everything.. i feel like i've been judging every little thing about my body..my face..everything. i pick little things and obsess about them. for example, i freaked out about my nose and tried different make up styles to make it skinnier..when everyone tells me my nose is perfect. I often times dont think im pretty when ppl say im gorgeous.i nit pick about my body, when my family friends and boyfriend say its perfect. i recently even turned to slight bulimia..it kind of makes me feel better, but i only do it when i really feel horrible. not all the time. im just not a very confident girl anymore, and i used to be i just dont know what happened. I need help, i feel like i cant tell anyone. i used to be soo confident and i can still talk to any guy and appear confident, but on the inside, im falling apart.i even stopped eating meat because i feel like my body is horrible.help

Can I get help for an eating disorder without going for professional help?
I've known for awhile that I have an eating disorder, and I really want to change it because I hate how it makes me feel and controls my life, but I just can't seem to stop.I'm not going to say what kind of ED it is, you can make your own assumptions I will say that your first guess is probably wrong . I'm 99.9% positive it is actually the eating disorder that I think it is, I did some research. I've been this way since about third grade, when I was teased and tormented to the point where I actually blocked the memories. Is there any way I can get help without actually going to a professional or notifying my parents? I'm only 16 so I think they're required to notify my parents? I dunno. Help me out?Anyone who says anything rude or completely off will get reported. This is supposed to be a helpful site where people help each other, not make fun of them.
What eating disorder did I have?
I couple of months ago I was anorexic...or I assumed I was, but now I'm starting to doubt myself.Initially, I would eat about 800 calories a day. I was exercising a lot, too. One day I binged, freaked out, and then...Lowered myself to 500 calories a day. One day I binged, freaked out, and then...Lowered myself to 300 calories a day. One day I binged, freaked out, and then...Lowered myself to 200 calories a day. One day I binged, and the next day I binged and the next day I binged, and then...That's how I recovered from my eating disorder...What did I have?
Is this normal for....(eating disorder question...)?
