I was anorexic between the ages of around 15 and 18. Just became obsessed with my weight because my two best friends were really skinny and I was quite plump as a teenager. My dad used to tease me about it and I just slowly stopped eating until I was lying to him and my step mum about having eaten, when really I was surviving on cups of sugary tea and coffee and maybe some fruit every day and that was it. I abused laxatives as well to stay super thin. At my lightest I was about 6 and a half stone which is super thin for my height of 5'6. Was never hospitalised or anything though.

I'm over it now and I actually got quite big at one point. Now I'm about average for my height and build and am happy with that.

Mine definitely stemmed from my relationship with my parents, especially my mum, she was obsessed with her appearance and always on a diet so I didn't see the problem with me doing the same. Just took it too far. My dad didn't exactly help either lol.
