Wanting to Escape Myself

By: Elise Aubrentina (View Profile)

But, despite all of this, the lies, the excuses, the purging, the thinking, being miserable and foggy, I am still the same body shape. It is not fair. I can’t win. It angers me to the point where I have even tried cutting myself, lame … maybe, but the fact that I stole the X-Acto knife just for that purpose is beyond my knowledge. I am not losing noticeable large amounts of weight like other girls who go through this do. I am lost, and need to feel skinny to be happy. Feeling full, fat, and gross feeds my angry and upset emotions to act up and make me take my anger out on other people around me. I am unhappy and I go through everyday feeling like I am not even here … I am only a person who is wanting to escape herself.

Is this an eating disorder or not?

I feel like im reading my life through your words. Im also a junior in high school and have struggled with this for two years now. I want to be over with this constant uphill battle, to feel good about myself but no matter how much i try i keep falling down into an even bigger hole than what i started with. We'll get through this though, with support and help from people who have gone through this before, if you ever want to talk more you can message me and we can help each other out.
