Lost 10 pounds in a day??

I have been really depressed... I can't get over it at all and I may need to be sent to a doctor, i realize that. but I don't drink water, I don't eat, and I have been losing weight so fast.... In one day I lost 10 pounds just from not eating or drinking anything, and the bad thing is. I don't even notice i'm hungry... please suggest a site for me to go to or call to get me some help.. definatly not 911, I live in the middle of nowhere and I dont want to cause that much trouble...I have been almost everywhere online, and I have tried talking to friends and it just isn't helping me....

    Unless you are morbidly obese, it's doubtful you lose 10 lbs of anything in one day. Surely you realize this is likely water weight or an inaccurate scale. If you're not eating because you're depressed, you need to seek treatment for your depression, not the symptoms (though definitely bring those up to a therapist).
