Question
I'm not sure, but it is possible that i either have an eating disorder or are headed into one.  i cant type a lot now, because i don't want my mum to come in the room and see me.  please, if you e-mail me, i can provide more information.  I'm begging you, please answer this, I'm very confused right now.

Answer
Hi Hannah. Yes, I can help you. Please provide me with as much information as possible. If you have to cut it up into seperate e-mails so that you don't get caught by your mom then please do so. How old are you? I'm assuming you are in your teenage years. This is a very trying time for young girls. What eating disorder do you think you are experiencing. How is your mood, emotions/feelings.
