Eating disorders come in many forms and differ in severity.
The best thing you can do is bring it up with loved ones and a doctor and get help before it gets too bad. My best friend has been bulimic for almost ten years now and he is so unhealthy. I honestly don't think he is going to live past 30 and he is always depressed and he absolutely hates his life, hates himself and is the biggest alcoholic I have ever met. He is in and out of mental institutions, rehab, hospitals and not sure if this is related in any way but jail. The worst part aside from his health is how much of a burden he is on his family because of his eating habits. He binges so much that the rest of his family never have anything else to eat and we can't do anything but watch him destroy himself. He is 23 and started being bulimic when he was 14.

I always tell my mom and dad that I feel fat but all they tell me is that you're not. I guess, I should go consult a doctor then.
Are there ways to trigger eating disorders?

Go see a doctor if your mom won't take you seriously, or if you are in school, maybe a teacher and mention that your parents aren't taking this matter seriously.
Honestly, I don't know about triggering one.
My said best friend got me into bulimia and I lost over 100lbs in just under a year.
Nothing was "triggered" I was just tired of being fat and he had a solution.
He was like my bulimia coach lol
It wasn't easy at first either because after pigging out I didn't ALWAYS feel like spending 10-20 minutes puking afterwards. So there was a lot of self motivation on my part to keep it up. But once you have been doing it for a while it gets easier, and then second nature really. Got to a point where I was puking up water that I drank because you start to feel disgusting whenever you have something sitting in your stomach and it gets really stressful if you can't purge. I was bulimic for three years and I started having panic attacks, lost two teeth, would stand up and almost black out from blood not getting to my brain fast enough, it's scary, you're heart starts beating really hard and you lose your vision for a couple seconds. I started taking whatever measures necessary to make sure I purged I won't lie, you can get pretty desperate. I finally quit when I met my husband and got pregnant.

Hmm. Thanks for the talk about eating disorders. I should definitely go see a doctor before anything happens.
Again. thank you!
