You sound like you need an ambulance...... If you're so depressed, can't eat and already dangerously underweight I think you need hospital treatment quite urgently or you'll be in serious trouble.   Do you live on your own?  Is there someone you could call to be with you? 

The depression is all on account of the low weight I assure you- "healthy body = healthy mind" basically you can't cope with anything until your body starts to heal. I too have been suffering from anorexia and am also underweight ( although not as seriously as you) at 38-9 kg at 5ft 6. I have had horrible periods of crazy emotions, lots of crying which I can't even explain and which doesn't seem to be caused by anything, and feeling like the world is ending. When I manage to have good periods of eating decently for a few days or so  it seems to calm down but recently I have had a few blips I think the extra stress of exams at the moment isn't helping- we just don't have enough reserves to deal with these kind of strains let alone day to day life. Basically what I'm trying to say is the only solution is to eat....I know how hard it is but try and think of every mouthful as a little step out of that deep, dark black hole. Sending hugs and hope xx

You have to eat and you know it.  Have you made any progress with your recovery efforts?

  • Have you continued to increase your calories?
  • Have you gained any weight?
  • Have you spoken with a therapist/counselor/anyone?
  • Have you decreased your exercise?

Any of these would tell me that you've made some progress however small it might be.
