For about the past year my weight has really troubled me after being called fat by people.including my sister and my nan. Im 15, 5'11.1.have stopped growing and weigh 62kg I feel so large and fat but friends always tell me im really skinny. my tendons and arteries on my oposite side of elbows have began sickly sticking out but i still feel fat.
I have lost interest in socialising with friends.
Recently i've started eating 850ish cals a day and i feel like a mad person with no control. if i eat something i do enjoy it.. but then i feel bad.depressed and sometimes lightly self harm to relieve pain.
this is not like me.but i feel like i need help because weight/calories and health is ALWAYS on my mind. i dont go 5 minutes without thinking about it. I would like to get down to 8.5 stone.
my mum has started picking things up and moaning at me about it. i just don't know what to do and i cant go to doctors otherwise they'll make me gain weight.
Please help me

Oh louie, louie, louie.. you must want to eat again- even doctors can't make you do that. very soon your organs and other parts of the body will be affected. I myself was anorexic at one point, but my mom showed so much concern and she was very persistent in wanting to help me want to eat again... I eventually started eating again to make her happy. She saved my life. A friend of mine wasn't that lucky. When she finally gained weight again- her body showed so much illnesses resulting from the extreme anorexia she suffered from... the last thing I heard about her was that she passed away. It's time for you to obsess about eating healthy- not about not to eat.
Sounds like you may want to get help. 850 calories per day is dangerously low. Im glad someone else weighs themselves in stones. If you cant go 5 minutes without thinking about it, give in and get help.
This does have many of the symptoms of anorexia. You should probably go get help, as getting down to 850 calories a day is dangerous. As for your concerns, the doctors may make you gain weight, but they will keep you at a healthy weight, they won't make you overweight. Also, they will teach you healthier ways to keep off weight.
Tell yourself that anorexia is dangerous, and can be DEADLY. Did you know you actually gain wait by not eating? No, I didn't make that up. Just eat three meals a day. If you're really worried about getting fat, eat things like salad and chicken and tuna, proteins and vitamins and vegetables. As long as you eat healthy, you'll be thin! Drink things like milk and juice to build strong bones and other good things. (: I did a paper on anorexia, and it can cause a lot of damage. So keep in mind that by not eating what you really need, you're just making your fear reality. SO EAT!
You're pretty skinny so I don't know why anyone would call you fat.
But anyway just eat healthy food all the time and don't feel bad about how much you eat. In my opinion you need to gain a little weight. Forget the counting calories nonsense. Find a picture of someone you want to look like, and then take a picture of yourself and compare.
Work toward looking like that other guy.
