Hello Claire,

Now, I'm not a doctor but I've learnt a fair bit in my time; as far as I'm aware nose bleeds are not physical symptoms of anorexia.

Your nose bleed is not a sign of your body shutting down. Nose bleeds stem from a variety of places but many people get them just randomly.

Hope this has helped but your mind at ease, Aiden.

Hey babii,

Im lizzie nd im 14 with anorexia too.

im not an expert but u sound really stressed. Try not to worry im sure that a nose bleed wont kill you. If your body was shutting down then i think it would be saving all your energy and blood.

Does anyone know about your problems?

Hope i helped, talk soon i hope,

Lizzie xxxx
