Do i have an eating disorder? how do i recover? i have been restricting my calories for over a year and lately i am eating under 300 calories a day.

Yes, see doc!: That is a starvation diet and will serious affect your health and possibly your life. When eating this little you will start to burn muscle mass and risk serious electrolyte disturbances that can be fatal. Please see your doc today, or go to an ER, you need to be evaluated right away.

300 calories a day: is much too low. Please see a mental health professional who specializes in eating disorders. The Renfrew Clinic is an in-patient hospital for this. Please cooperate and do this. You will be much happier and healthier. Peace and good health.
