Okay, so how do you know your body was shaking 3 times while you were sleeping? It sounds like you are in a major depression and you need to seek help for that. If you are vomiting after all of this eating....do you have an eating disorder? A lot of what you are writing on here sounds very much like you have an eating disorder: fainting, vomiting after eating, shaking, a tremendous amoumnt of stress in your life ect. Have you talked to your parents about this and what are their feelings about what is going on with you. Have they tried to seek therapy help for you with all of this stress? On a side note: the chest pain you're describing, does not sound heart related. Saying that, IF you are having an eating disorder such as anorexia, that can play havoc with the heart which can result in death. Get help. Take care

hi grendslori, just thought i would share this with you. i just did some checks on a couple websites and realized that even though i show anorexia traits i do not have a weight problem or an eating disorder. now i wonder if there are any other illnesses out there with similar traits? .

thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me. regarding your first question, my sister also a friend who have slept with me have told me that they woke in the middle of the night and saw my entire body shaking. maybe i could be experiencing a real depression as you suggest as i feel so helpless at times and have accepted the possibility of death.  unfortunately both my parents are handicapped so i am unable to speak with them and its so difficult to find a family member or friend who i can really trust to share my problems with, that is why i decided to post my situation online in need of a solution. after reading your comment i am now thinking i may need to go to therapy and see whether or not i am also suffering from anorexia as well. i appreciate our communication.
