The problem is she loves you. 

Well if you are starving yourself and passing out in school, then you may have a problem. You should talk to your doctor. Societies pressure to be thin and beautiful can take its toll. You can lose weight and look good through healthful eating and moderate exercise. I wish you luck and peace.  

Please don't starve yourself I've been there and I'm still recovering. The end results won't be pretty. It took me a year to get rid of the long white rubber like hairs that grew because I was unable to keep warm.  

Hi Raven, i just want you to know we are thinking about, and wish nothing but the best for you.  

Ah Raven, as a mother we try to do our best with our kids cuz we love you. My daughter "flirted" with anorexia as a teen. It did not get to the point of hospitalization, but I was out of my mind with worry. I yelled/screamed/lectured/begged/threatened her. You are right, she doesn't understand, just like I didn't understand what MY daughter was going thru. Please be gentle with her and yourself. Is there any way to just talk with her or someone else? I know you are afraid of being put "away" but it sounds like help might be needed. We all need help now and again.... 

Why do you want to lose 10lbs if you're suffering with anorexia?  

starving yourself? YOU dont understand you... You need to seek medical attention.. and Im sorry but you weight like 115 lbs. trying weighting 215 or 250 or 315 like most of us.. you have no business trying to lose anymore weight and feeling sorry for yourself bc you think your fat.. please see a dr as soon as you can and get some help...
