I am affraid to go to my doctor about my problem. I starve myself and am constantly working out to the point of fainting. i can't stop I have gone down ten dress sizes from a twenty four to a fourteen in a matter fo six months I have lost twenty five inches. My hair is thinning and falling out I am constantly freezing and moody. but I can't stop I don't want to go to the doc in fear he will admit me to a hospital I am a single mom of two girls I can't be away and I don't want my kids taken away what do I do?

This is no way of life... you need help, you know you do. And you may be afraid, trust me, i know... i was terrified myself, but it is the best thing for you. You will just have to take a blind leap of faith and trust the health care professionals around you. See if you can find a Dr. who specifically deals with ED's b/c they may be more sympathetic and understanding, which may help you some. You have options... you don't have to stay in this horrible place.
Hi there,
I agree with allio, you should definitely see a doctor. It does not sound like he/she would hospitalize you. I would also check into seeing a therapist which will help a lot with your recovery.
