 okay, so i said i would post my stats and my story so here goes ...

Basically, been suffering with an ED for over 2 years, around 2 and a half years but when i look back there were signs earlier. like wanting to be the thinnest in my ballet class when i was 5!

Last year was forced to the doctor weighing 100lbs, im 5'7.  anorexic. 
And was sent home

I'm glad you posted your story, too. I may can help with all the meds stuff...I've been through several different kinds and still haven't found one that works well for me. I started with lexapro (similar to prozac), then to effexor xr, not I'm on effexor xr + welbutrin. If I've learned anything from it, it's to be honest with your doctor and assertive if your medication is not working. There are tons of options...
I'm here for you, love.

thanks for all the feedback,
its nice to here other people's input.
and thank you for being so nice about my stats! i was v. scared
and in a way i wish i was proud but im far from it ...
nice one ED

and yes in a way my ballet teacher was telling us how to look ect,
and then i did gymnastics for 10 years so was always tiny because it stunts your growth
i was training every day until i almost broke my neck and then i just couldnt do it any more. it completely broke me because it was the one thing that i was good at and something that was going somewhere.
and then i grew upwards and outwards! and it was so sudden, developing and everything!
and it all freaked me out
then i got into figure skating, yet another sport where thinness is preferred and gave this up when my ED caused me to faint and almost kill myself on the ice ...

nice story rach.

but thank you again for all of you input, its really comforting.
hope your all okay xo
