Any way to see a doctor without my parents finding out?

[superkitty721]

I hope I don't trigger anyone. =\

This is long, thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to read it.




I'm only 16, but I have many friends over 18..


I've had an eating disorder for over 5 years and my parents don't really care as long as I don't let anybody know my personal business or problems or anything.
[please don't tell me that I should prob just get people involved to help with my parents, I had a lovely ordeal with the DSS and they pretty much stirred up everything bad in my life that I was trying to deal with, and then they left, so my parents cut me off from all communication with anybody for the entire summer and everything just got worse, in my head and with my family life]

I have a lot of pains, a lot of dizziness, and in the past few months, I have gotten more heart pains that are increasing in frequency. My stomach is just.. a mess. It hurts, then it feels weird, it can't handle some foods and other days it can. I've vomited blood before, but I assume it isn't that bad if I am not dead now. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of the night getting sick.

I began taking diet pills 4 and a half years ago and there really hasn't been a time where I wasn't on them or wasn't at least popping them at random. I have also, in some phases of my eating disorder, purged up to 5 times in one day.

There are some times where I would really, really like to see a doctor about these things, just to make sure I haven't created a really reallllly serious health problem (i'm a worryer), but I absolutely couldn't have my parents find out..
Isn't there any way to go about this?

Well...wanting to see a doctor is a great step towards recovery, im very proud of you and your courage!
now...lets see how you can do that! since i read that you live in the usa, hospitals and doctors thing work different than in my country but i try to give you some advice anyways, maybe they work anyways!
you are under 18 so you need someone that take you to the doctor that is older than that but you said that you have friends that are older than you so you can ask them. the problem is that if you dont want to tell your parents you have to pay for the check yourself...honestly i have no idea about the cost of a doctor appointment there so you shuld first ask that and then see if you can pay it or not! is you cant why dont you try to ask somebody else in your family, maybe you aunt or uncle? just tell them that you didnt feel good these past days and you just want a check up without your parents knowing that because you dont want them to get worried!
i dont know if this help you...i hope so...let me know!
