I first became anorexic when I was 13. It became fairly severe. Now, years later, I tend to still have thoughts and qualms about my body... even though I'm not 'fully' practicing, should I get professional help?

Yes, I would absolutely say you should.

Yes, would you seek treatment for a broken leg or heart attack?

I was 90 lbs. as a teen and even when I was 21 years old. I did not like to eat much. I just did not enjoy food as much as now. But if you truly have that problem and need help I would get it. It is curable and take that first step so you can have peace within yourself. You will feel better when you are able to have a stable weight and still see yourself not fat. Good luck to you.

Yes, it will help. You still have issues that you can use help working through, but you sound like you want to overcome this fully. I think therapy would be very beneficial for you, just find someone experience in treating eating disorders and body image issues.
