Too insecure to go outside because of my bad dark cirlces, pale skin, and sickly look...
I look really bad. I've never been this low. I can't say its entirely not my fault, but i did in fact stop eating as much, which caused me to become this way. Prior to this "look" I had been a healthy girl. In grade 9,10 and 11, I was relatively healthy and several guys even liked me. Moreover, throughout those grades I strived to become skinny. I wanted to be like my cousins so badly because they were always called models. I felt if i got that skinny, I would too. In grade 12 I started dieting, and I stoping eat as much. I still ate enough calories but i stopped eating over. Moreover, now I sleep late, and get 3 hours of sleep, eat approximately 800 calories a day, and never get activity in my schedule. I am always indoors because i lost all my friends after highschool. Im so alone, and i feel so worthless now. I keep losing weight and think theres something wrong with me. Everyone tells me im sick, not skinny, sick; deathly sick. I never go outside now, and want to just end it all.

start eating a minimum of 1400 calories per day and alot of this will get better, lack of food makes lack of sleep, and also can cause depression, eat some food!

I did the same as you.
The lack of food made me feel a bit 'high'.
Please seek professional help for your eating and nutritional issues!
You ARE a beautiful young lady!
Take baby steps in the other things in your life, you need to get out, and find something to enjoy. New friends. Volunteer one day a week. Love yourself!
I can't say what worked for me to get back to eating normal, because it might not be right for you.
Get well!

The Problem:
You said; "throughout those grades I strived to become skinny. I wanted to be like my cousins so badly because they were always called models"
When you stop worrying about what OTHERS think, You'll LIVE "Again" but until then, you'll be inside all the time....
If you didn't (Think) you liked seeing what was in the mirror before, how you liking it now? -
Don't worry about what OTHERS think, its only what YOU think....Are you living THEIR life or, yours?Like (1)

You need to stop being so down on yourself. I know that you think you're ugly but you're not an ugly girl. I know it's harder to make a lifestyle change than it is to say you're going to make a lifestyle change but you need to start eating more. There are people who live on low amounts of caloric intake but the body has to ration what it does with it and you're most likely going to have a problem later on.
The body is still growing at your age (especially the brain) and you need food to maintain healthy body function and growth. You're probably used to eating low amounts of food at this point but try increasing it bit by bit until you're comfortable eating more than you are now (your stomach has probably shrunken at this point).
Furthermore, you need to be outside for Vitamin D intake (which is absorbed through the sun if you're not getting it from adequate diet) which it sounds like you're not getting enough which is why the skin is so pale.Like (1)

You need to go to a doctor and find out if there's anything wrong. There may not be, but you won't be able to try to feel better if you don't find out. If you start eating healthy right now, you might work it out and see you don't need a doctor. I'd suggest getting stuck into some vitamin c tablets and good clean food to get some energy going. Plenty of water and sleep and get your arms and legs out under the sunshine as soon as you see it. You may not have anything wrong now but you certainly will if you don't get yourself out of this "look". You'll find it easier to like yourself when you kick the look too.

You can over come your setback and be awesome again. Talk to someone you trust (friends, family, social worker ) who will listen to you and will not judge you and will help you make decisions that will make you better. The best thing you can do is acknowledge you ARE amazing you deserve to be here and you will get back to being awesome. But,you cannot do this alone. Good luck!

Eat some GD food. It's not that hard. But you can go to the store at night. No one will think twice about a pretty girl who needs some food out at night, what, with all the vampire stuff all around. Move around a bit. Take in some sun when no one else is looking. If you have developed an eating disorder, then go to the doctor. No sense in letting it get worse.

Eat protein, especially beef, if you're religion/lifestyle/pocketbook allows.

As a rule, I never talk to anyone female and your age. This is an exception. All girls your age think they're not attractive in one way or another. I can assure you that most people who look at you will tell you otherwise. You may look sick, but that's a different issue. We all need a touch stone to bring us back to reality. Find a trusted friend who you will believe and ask them. They'll bring you to a proper conclusion about your appearance. Dark circles/pale skin. I'd trade it for my wrinkles and gray hair. God bless you, kid.
