(no subject)

so, 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).
