Nov. 10th, 2006 12:48 amso, earlier today I went to the medical centre, saw a nurse, then a doctor, and after 45 minutes of umming and ahhing and weighing and filling in forms, here is what the three of us concluded:
*I am NOT anorexic (ha! told you so :P )
*I am, however, very, very underweight, down to 7st 4lbs
*this gives me a BMI of 15. The healthy optimum is 20.
*University has left me clinically depressed.
*As a result, they want to put me on prozac.
This was all a bit scary and overwhelming, particularly the last point. It also raises two potentially equally scary questions:
*If I decide to go on prozac/take some time off uni, should I/how do i tell my housemates?
*Same again, but with my parents?
Ohhh. I think I need a nice cup of tea and a sit down
(except I don't like tea, so hot chocolate will have to do).
