  • wow- she really managed to sum up alot of how i feel, I can really relate

  • can someone please describejust how it feels like having bulimia? school projekt:)

  • how long has she been bulimic? is she ok now? i mean she doesn't purge anymore?

  • If anyone sees this: I've had success with "binge chewing". I've been binge eating and vomitting sooooo many times, and i've finally discovered something that work without vomitting afterwards: I grab the food i really want to eat, I chew it, but instead of sinking I just throw it out again in a cup or in the toilet. This way i get all the taste from the food, without the bad things.

  • man shes gotta be a good cook

  • For me bulimia is my best friend Im 27 & have been bulimic for 4 yrs I feel being bulimic is easier b/c its easier to hide and being really thin I use to be 114 a size 4 due to depression meds I was taking and they decreased my appetite but now I am 189 I feel fat & ugly even when i was a size 4 I still felt fat its like Ive learned ways 2 cover my track w/bulimia at the end of the day for me Its a coping mechanism

  • I can totally understand. It's not fun. I'm so relieved to have it under control now, but everyday is difficult. I hope you're doing better. Take care!

  • Its a love hate thing:S

  • Danishes aren't sweets? Hello?

  • I used to be bulimic. Once I started to realize how much God loves me I realized my own worth and overcame it. I can say that I can do all things in Christ who gives me strength according to Phillipians 4:13.

  • people would respect me more if I got thin by being bulimic. I have binge eating disorder but people dont recognise it as real and just call me a fat lazy pig. Maybe I should start vomiting it up then I'll get thin and they wont bitch at me anymore

  • @ByeByeBelly most people don't get thin by being bulimic

  • @ByeByeBelly You don't lose weight from bulimia. A lot of people actually gain weight.

  • @HauntedMusicBox2 i lost 10kg so far, you dont know shit

  • @CourtneyJadeex Lucky you. I've been bulimic for over a year and no matter what I do I can't lose weight. The majority of bulimics I know say the same thing. I'm glad you think "i dont know shit" as you so eloquently explained, because it shows that you are so capable of expressing yourself in something other than food. However,the fact that you choose to do so by flaming people over YouTube leads me to the conclusion that you either have angry issues or you're just a bitch. Have a nice day!

  • @HauntedMusicBox2 I apologise. Thought you were just going off what you read.

  • @CourtneyJadeex That's okay.

  • @ByeByeBelly you'll lose your teeth.. my hips aren't small, my waist isn't tiny, my teeth are. :(

  • @ByeByeBelly I am so sorry you have to deal with that. I know how hard it is having a disorder seeing i have bulimia it is a fight everyday one that i wish i never got into because i can't win.. i am sorry everyone says that about you but i can tell you this i think you are beautiful.. i know you don't know me but i think that.. i am pretty weird i honestly believe everyone is beautiful just not me.. I know it may be tempting to start purging but i hope you don't because once you

  • @ByeByeBelly continued~ Start it gets addicting it becomes upsetting at how addcting it is. not only that but it kills you it is just so scary because i don't think you want to die or anyone else with bulimia honestly we just can't help it. It ruins your teeth and your knuckles some people develope body dysmorphic disorder which is a real struggle it just adds on to all the pain. It's a monster. I hate seeing others go through it. and i would hate to see another get taken over by it

  • u gay? o.o ur girlfriend

  • @VideoGirlOlivia Why does it matter? being gay has nothing to do with Bulimia..

  • thank you sooo much, this was very helpfully, god bless you and to anyone who does not understand please dont under estimate this disorder

  • how would u call someone who just binge but doesnt purge. still bulimic?

  • @BEBA2008ROBY

    No, it's called 'binge eating disorder'. To be bulimic you have to purge in some way.

  • @saturdaysghost they actually are called ''non-purging bulimics'' because they use excessive exercise, dieting or laxatives to ''purge'' themselves of the food.

  • @BEBA2008ROBY they actually are called ''non-purging bulimics'' because they use excessive exercise, dieting or laxatives to ''purge'' themselves of the food.

  • @BEBA2008ROBY Most people will just call you a fat pig with no control. I have binge eating disorder and thats what eople on my channel call me daily

  • @BEBA2008ROBY no they would be binge eating disordered.

  • @BEBA2008ROBY B E D. Binge Eating Disorder..without any compensation..

  • @URBANBOOGER any suggestion on how people can stop binging?

  • @BEBA2008ROBY Heya, can't give you any specific answers as the cause behind binge eating is different for many people.. But the first step :) admitting it, telling somebody; not being alone in it.. maybe if its possible for you, enrolling in an eating disorder treatment facility or attend therapy session..and little things, not keeping much food at home, keep yourself as busy as possible, make yourself drink as much water so you feel to full to binge, try and figure out your triggers..

  • @BEBA2008ROBY depression can play a big part in BED ,a visit 2 your gp,maybe try a course of antidepressants?make sure u get enough sleep..dieting isn't a good idea at all, make sure u eat breakfast,having breakfast as ur biggest meal of the day,plan meals,exercise;even if u start really minimal :) itsa start & 4give urself..dnt let guilt & shame get 2 u, It's not an overnight fix..there will be hard days where u may not b able 2say no & thats okay~ dn't give up & keep fighting to overcome it

  • wish you the best :)

  • is bulimia sth like you want to be stick ass thin like an anorexic but cant help eating more than u need to?, if yes, thats just as sick as anorexia <_<

  • there's a friday prayer night at my church and one night i met this girl. she suddenly opened up to me about how she had an eating disorder. through her encouragement,and support i was able to get stronger. i still struggle to overeat. but i haven't purged in ages and for that i can worship god with so much joy. for me i ate because i felt empty inside. i realised i needed to be filled by god not food. if you want support, dont hesistate to email me ncy.jay@gmail.com

    middy you CAN get out NOW

  • @alybaaaby I know :( I don't know if I could 'be' ana or bulimic, because I love food TOO much and can't stop eating. I've tried seeking help for my depression and self harm but it's so scary. I reach out then withdraw again. I hope I can get out one day..

  • @alybaaaby  Hey :) I am dealing with Bulimia and I am a Christian always seeking God's help and giving him control of my habits. Some times its easy and other days its very hard.... I wanted to ask you what made you turn around? Thanks for posting :)

  • @alybaaaby Hey :) I am dealing with Bulimia and I am a Christian always seeking God's help and giving him control of my habits. Some times its easy and other days its very hard.... I wanted to ask you what made you turn around? Thanks for posting :)

  • I forgot to write this earlier, but I relate to a lot of what she says. I think about food a lot too and whenever I binge, I totally lose control. I've been binging on food for over a year now, and have now recently started purging. I'm realizing that it's best that I stop purging my food, but now at times I do it out of guilt for binging. I just hope I can get things better before it gets worse.

  • I remember wanting to have anorexia and/or bulimia for a long time. I'm not trying to be ignorant or anything; I honestly did. When I was around 12 or so, I started trying to make myself throw up but I was too scared because I'm scared of throwing up. I still sometimes wish I could do it, but I know it's best if I don't start. I have a big problem with overeating, though, and wonder if I have binge overeating disorder. I also self harm and have clinical depression. Stay strong though girlies!

  • I feel so bad for this woman. She seems so sad.

    This seems like an old video, so I hope she's better now.

  • Its hard for me to keep food down too, but eating foods with lower water content tht wont make me feel full minimizes my tendency to purge. like rice-cakes, salads, dried fruit, prepare with lots of flavour and savour it, take my time. I still struggle with bulimia, but I try to stay positive, a diary helps as it reminds me of the good days n how the bad days arent worth it. I hope every1 can find a path to their recovery, open up and find strength thats buried underneath.

  • I have Bulimia, and I allways tell myself I am not going to throw up..I'll keep it down, and 10 minutes after I eat I am freaking and nearly in tears, so I have to throw it up.Bulimia has taken over my life, and I just carnt stop.And it is harder for me too purge everytime.Sometimes I see blood come up.I also get really bad chest pains after I purge.I know I am doing damage too myself.But I want to be thin, if I eat I am going to be fat and unhappy all my life.

  • What is stationary therapy??? I've had bulimia since 2006. And i don't know how to stop.

  • i understand all of this im going on 3 years now im so scared im like killing myself

  • This is just like me!!! OMG, I always feel like I'm sooo alone. It's nice to know that I'm not...even though I'm sorry that others have to go through the same thing as I do:(

  • i am the same,omg. i dont know what i should do...

  • i am in the same place....

  • Perpalexing I ment people

  • Idk why yuu perplexing Wana. Be that thin I lost weight just by riding the bike and it was really fun. Yuu don't have to throw up is disgusting

  • @germanpartygirl93 I'm not really sure how to explain how you should do it but I think after I eat I feel horrible and think of something nasty so I can't feel the food right under my rib cage and I flex those muscles until the food comes up. You have to chew your food really well or it won't work. And you have to drink something too. But not to much or all you'll be throwing up is liquids. You'll probably only need like half a cup. It all depends on how much you eat though..

  • @germanpartygirl93 I don't want therapy :(

  • @germanpartygirl93 well you don't have to be extremely thin to be hospitalized... you can have serious health complications and be a normal weight... heart arrhythmia because of low electrolytes (because of vomiting), low blood pressure, slow heart rate... it's all there... you can't expect to be throwing up regularly and be in good health.. it just doesn't work like that unfortunately. i mean i've been to the hospital for a month and i still cant stop throwing up... i love it too much :(

  • @lebloobloo you seriously need help, please go into treatment before it is too late

  • @germanpartygirl93 well, thanks :( but i need like 10 + lbs...a piece of meat won't do it... more like a whole cow

  • wow so a lot of ppl(mostly girls) do it.

    say, am i the only guy here who do this to lose weight ? :p

  • thank you for your honesty. it's not easy to tell so much people all the thing you did for food. i'm basically overweight (compulsive overeater) with episodes of bulimia. i used to vomit for some years. the thing that work for me is overeaters anonymous.

  • MAN, YOU GIRLS NEED HELP. CAN U UNDERSTAND WHAT YOUR PARENTS ARE TRYING TO DO?????? THEIR TRYING TO HELP YOU....YOU GUYS CANT LIVE YOUR LIFE THIS WAY, YOU WILL DIE......EVEN THOUGH YOU GUYS THROW UP AND LOSE THE WEIGHT, IN YOUR EYES YOU WILL ALWAYS BE FAT....AND THATS NOT THE WAY TO LIVE. YOU ONLY HAVE ONE LIFE, AND YOUR LIFE SHOULDNT CONSIST OF LOSING WIEGHT...EV ERY ONE WANTS TO LOOSE WEIGHT AND LOOK LIKE A MODEL, BUT THEIR IS A SMART WAY AND A STUPID WAY. MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE AND...

  • i don´t even have to put my finger down my throat anymore, i just throw up after every meal (sry for my bad english)

  • I'm 15 and bulimia's gotten easier for me. I've been bulimic for aittle over a year....I don't need to gag myself. All I need to do it flex certain muscles on my stomach and I can thow everything back up. I actually can't gag myself, I don't gag. I know bulimia's bad so I'm planning on stopping, but only once I loose 20-30 pounds. I'm really overweight....

  • @Dannylynnxoxo ME TOO! i thought i was the only one that doesn't gag... but for me it's kind of like burping... only i sort of bring up the contents of my stomach rather than just gas.

  • @lebloobloo Exactly!! And it doesn't hurt or anything either like shoving you're fingers down your throat either..

  • @Dannylynnxoxo too bad my parents found out and i was hospitalized :( im fat now and i have someone monitor my weight once a week to see that im gaining...

    it's hell.

    but once y 9 months of outpatient are done, i'm losing all the weight. if i just had 2 weeks to be able to do what i want (vomit all the time) i could easily lose the weight. but im a fucking minor and i have no say in whether i want treatment or not

    haha sorry for all this, i just got excited that ur like me :) yay bulimia

  • @lebloobloo Haha me too :) and hospitalized??? Ouch!! I don't know if I'm even loosing weight with bulimia. I'm pretty sure it helps though. I don't know why people think I need help. I feel pretty normal other, than my weight.. :/ How'd you get caught???

  • @Dannylynnxoxo well after a certain point it becomes obvious...

    it was a combination of anorexia and bulimia...

    i was throwing up after anything i ate, even if it was an apple... usually into bottles..... my mom found them-- either empty in the bathroom, but they reeked of vomit, or they were full... the occasional one would explode before i got the chance to get rid of it..

    for now recovery feels like the worst thing in the world. i wouldn't wish it onto my worst enemy.

  • @lebloobloo I'm so sorry :( I usually throw up in the toilet or shower. The shower sounds gross but its kinda easier because my parents can't hear anything when I'm in the shower. What did the hospital tell you?? Are you planning on throwing up again once they think your recovered??

  • @Dannylynnxoxo well i was there for a month, and when i first got there and they fed me a 500 calorie diet the first day, i was gaining weight. and then over the course of the next few weeks they increased it to about 2500 calories, we ate 3 meals and 3 snacks.. it was like constantly shoving food in your face. i went from 86 pounds, to 101.. (i'll finish in the next post)

  • @Dannylynnxoxo i was absolutely horrified and i wanted to kill myself... which was about 2 weeks ago. i continued throwing up and didn't tell them.. and they noted my weight loss and threatened me with another hospitalization. but now i think i'm gonna play my cards right, and when my 9 months of check-ups are up, i'm gonna go back to my old ways. i miss it so much. i'm going to university next year, so hopefully i'll have everyone off my back by then

  • @lebloobloo How old and how tall are you? And I hope it all works out for you.. try working out so you burn more calories than you're taking in. You can try cutting your meals in half, say you'll eat it later and only eat half of whats left and then when they're not looking throw away the rest of it so they know you're at least eating and you're not throwing up. If they ask about the weight loss you can tell them it's because you're working out..

  • @Dannylynnxoxo i'm 15 (turning 16 august 8th) and 5'4.. see, i'm not allowed to lose weight :( i've been losing for my past 3 checkups and if i lost once more, they're putting me back in the hospital. if you can think of a way that i could keep my weight up just for the appointment that would help a lot.. but i already got caught wearing weights once...

    so...

    and there's only so much water i can drink in an hour :(

  • @lebloobloo I'll be 16 on October 4th and I'm 5 '4 too :P .... I have no good ideas for the hospital weight thing :( Maybe binge eat and purge after they check up on you and drink a ton of water?? I can't think of anything else :( I think it's ridiculous that anyone under 18 can't decide whether they want to be in a hospital or not >.<

  • @Dannylynnxoxo i know, right :(. absolutely no part of me wanted treatment...

    nor do i think it's intelligent or effective to force teenagers into treatment and make them gain so much weight in so little time; as if that's really going to help. the second i got out of the hospital, i relapsed (but had to gain the weight back anyway). treatment--- for those who really want it, is a slow process... you can't expect anyone to be treated by 20 pounds of weight gain in a couple of months.

  • @Dannylynnxoxo these stupid adults and so-called professionals think they know everything about eating disorders, but unless they've had one themselves, they can't really understand. they think that just because a teenager has an eating disorder, it's just a phase and they can totally snap out of it. but i never wanted recovery, which is why i plan to lose all this weight the second i'm out of there for good. it's the only thing that keeps me motivated :( so tell me about your story :)

  • @lebloobloo You're right. Bulimia isn't a phase. I've been bulimic for the last two years. I haven't ever been caught throwing up yet. I try to eat all my food at night because when everyone goes to bed I can just go to the bathroom and throw it all up and not have to worry about anyone hearing me. I've also had self injury problems for the last two years. I think my brain lacks a natral chemical called dopamine or something because that's what some people have told me

  • @lebloobloo I just recently got caught cutting and now both of my parents are threatening me with therapy and crud. My dad made me promise to quit. I said ok but I still do other stuff like rub my skin off with whatever I find lying around when I get upset. I've been trying to find a better way to deal with things but it takes time.. I haven't had anything traumatic happen to me. I just have emotional issues :/

  • I wonder where this lady is now...how she's doing? Those puffy bags under her eyes are too familiar as my own. She's amazing to share so much about this private nightmare.

  • could really use some support I have delt with this disease alone for seven years......I feel better knowin iam not alone because it feels like nobody i know understands me

  • When she was describing her binge, it made me wanna binge even more....

  • @2Namia what is the matter with all of you? Do you know the damage you are putting on your body? Did you know that you and all of these girls are damaging your organs and the complications are not reversible? Please, listen to me and go into treatment before it is too late

  • thanks for sharing. im recovering... or trying very hard to.. i have horrible teeth. i feel really depressed. but i knowit must stop and i am hopeful that one day, i will be able to not have food on my mind every single moment of the day. i am still very worried that i might not be strong enough to keep it going and i also really regret the years ive spent battling this disease and what i have done to my teeth.

    in the end, i have to do this for myself, not anyone else.

    thanks for the video!

  • @lou23ist just saying from my experience. I used to deal with the same thoughts, and I still do. but I was able to stop purging. I mean food is still my number one issue. I always ask myself, why did I eat that, etc. but just live each day in the moment; put yourself in situations where you can't throw up. It's a bitch, but it's great once your past. I still think about food, but it's not nearly as bad as throwing up and thinking about throwing up constantly.

  • yes, bulimic ppl come in all different sizes.

    some are under weight, normal weight or over weight.

    It really goes down to how much you eat and how much u manage to get up.

    let's say if you ate a lot and u weren't able to throw much of it up that probably means ur an over weight bulimic... or if u ate a lot and manage to throw up practically everything...u wud prob be under weight or at normal weight..this is from experience.

  • I don't know... I love food soooooo much. "get in my bellay"

  • so only 50% of the calories will be thrown up and .. ur body keeps the other half? so i guess bulimics dont lose weight. are the mojority of bulimics not even thin?? im so confused. i keep on hearing that bulimics dont lose weight & that they do. whats the truth here??! im lost!!!

  • @09cheerios a lot of bulimic girls gain weight before they start to loose it, specially the girls that have just start the disease cause they don't "know" how to throw up most part of the food..is more easy to loose weight having anorexia since they only eat from 0 to 700 calories each day

  • @09cheerios why dont you just hand someone a gun instead of giving deadly advice on anorexia and bulimia. Do you realize how dangerous your replies are and how dangerous this disease is on your body?

  • alka seltzer alka seltzer alka seltzer alka seltzer alka seltzer

    will save your teeth and esophagus

    1 for rinse.. 1 for drink ..rinse first.. then drink

  • that plastic bag thing seems scary.. for me its easy to throw up now after many times... even when i don't want to throw up it sometimes come up food anyway

  • How long does it take before you really get to see that you are damaging your teeth? How many imes do you puked at a day?

  • Right now it goes on once a day. if it gets really bad, i'll binge and purge 4 times a day.

  • @Raeanne231 its not hard to bring up at all if you have a sip of water between each bite

    and same :/

  • that's right. Over time you learn all the tricks. I've learned to have at least 2 liters worth of liquid when i binge. if it's hot liquids that's even better. it used to take me longer to purge then to binge. now purging takes less time and effort than the binge. honestly, it might seem disusting, but after pigging out so badly purging is such a relief.

  • @shoponline831 I know how you feel.

  • curiosamente de se sentir magra,teem sim a necessidade de se sentir bem como ela quer (eu sou bulimika nervosa crónika )

  • Há vários estilos de Bulimia:Há pessoas que teem necexidade de se sentirem magras quando se olham ao espelho.Há as que são anorexikas bulimikas necessidade de comer vomitar e olhar para o espelho magro:há as que teem bulimia nervosa,ou seja as que comem mas que o cerebro não admite a comida(alguma)penxando sempre que esta comida lhes fax mal,mal como????hÁ SAÚDE,AO FISIKO,HÁ PELE,HÁ MENTE....esta bulimika não teem

  • This is not spanish tube, speak english. Go to a spanish video if you want to speak spanish

  • 6 years? holy crap! respect, plz tell me about what shape your teeth are in, thats what I obsess/worry over the most...

  • Comment removed

  • Do you need any help?

  • I have the exact feelings as you.................

    CANT STOP BINGE-EATING, I HAVE LOST MY CONTROL!!!!

    I CANT PURGE! HENCE, I FAST TILL 7 IN THE EVENING.

  • This is exactly what im like. Sometimes i can go days without food and feel really happy. But on normal cercumstances, i binge all the time, coz i feel like if i only eat a little bit, there'll be nothing to throw back up, so i make myself eat so much that my body wants me to throw up. I gets easier everytime for me and i feel so good afterwards. But no matter how many articles i look at, i cnt convince myself that i have a problem because i'm already obease. How can u have bulimia when ur fat?!

  • bulimia doesn't guarantee skinniess cos only 50% of the calories consumed are purged :\ and it damaged my esophagus so bad.. im still trying to recover but i still purge 3-6 times a day now, don't let it get worse!! DON'T!

  • from what i have read most people suffering from bulimia are normal weight or overweight...of course there are also alot that are quite slim and underweight. i think it kind of depends on the weight you are when you become bulimic...

  • You don't have to be skinny to have bulimia. Don't you know that's why bulimia goes undetected the majority of the time? Bulimics come in different shapes and sizes, some are skinny, some are a normal weight and some are overweight.

  • @ThePriceOfGluttony Is not necessary to be skinny to have bulimia.I suffer for both bulimia and anorexia.I'm skinny..but my therapist told me is not necessary to be skinny.When u vomit all that food you get rid of just half the calories.When u start eating the body starts absorbing ur food so you don't vomit all.

  • @ThePriceOfGluttony I know how you feel...

  • @ThePriceOfGluttony Bulimia isn't like anorexia, bulimia is binging and purging. If you have both, then it's even more dangerous. 

  • i feel the same way...see your not i can relate to you :)

  • I've been struggling with bulimia for 5 years and I'm still not over it... but I KNOW we're not alone and I KNOW that there has to be a way to prevent other people from getting this disease... i hate bulimia. Thanks so much for spreading awareness :)

  • Help is possible, it all starts with believing yourself and believing that you can do it. I have had bulimia for 5 years now, and have recovered and relapsed, but the help is all worthwhile. Help is always there if you look for it :)

  • Comment removed

  • i dont get it i throw up and stuff and sort of obssess over what i eat but i don't binge so WHAT THE HELL AM I lol i throw up if i feel that i ate 'too much' for what im comfortable with.

  • How come people with Bulimia don't look THAT skinny like an anorexic? I mean where you start seeing their ribs and such. They technically don't eat anything either.

  • easy...you're never able to vomit everything you've eaten.

  • You can struggle with bulimia and b/p, but still eat normally outside of that. Not everyone b/p's and does not consume food outside of that. Most people eat, but b/p on top that. And of course what others mentioned. Some things are very hard to purge anyway.

  • "It's a struggle every day." I hear that.

    It's depressing to realize I can relate myself to these women more and more each day. It's been around three years now and I'm 17, I should be living. :/

  • i have suffered for two years.

    i wait to throw up i dont care how long it takes

    after a bindge i even chew on what ive eaten if i like the taste.

    all i need to do is bend over and push my lower stomach and it comes out.

    ive tried to get my mind off food and i cant i just cant

  • Wow..im just like t6hat:(

  • i hopr this woman got there, i mean to her goal to be free from bulimia. its a struggle

  • idk y i puke every time after i eat... i like it but i didn't make it. i puke but i not using my finger to do it... idk why!!!!

  • I wish i never even started throwing up after i eat.

    It feels good to lose weight, but i know its slowly kiling me.

  • =[ me too.

  • @InfiniteCorpses oh me too :(

  • @InfiniteCorpses yeah,same here. if you want to talk,you can message me.

  • @InfiniteCorpses i know how u feel there babe...i lost so much weight but i dont feel happy or good or anything anymore

  • She speaks so matter of factly. It's weird. I could never do that.

  • I do too when I speak about my ED. It removes me from it, I think. It is all facts, statistics.

  • *hugs*

    "This is the last time - never again." Literally thousands of times I've said that now.

    Hang in there, hun. Keep hope.

    xxx

  • xxx? LMAOOOO sorry.

  • okay i suffer EVERYDAY with bulimia...

    but i souly survive on Ipecac!!

    i probably spend more than $80 every 2 weeks on Ipecac alone.

    i dont care what overs think of me but i know im an unhealthy person. :T

  • i heard ipecac can kill you on the first try. please be careful.

    and i have both bulimia and anorexia and i am 99 pounds 5'7'' so i guess bulimia does make you lose weight. i dont recommend it though. its a total hell.

  • you should stop. its not healthy, and although i dont know u, i dont want you to get hurt

  • but IPEAC not is dangerous ?!

    answer PLEASE !

  • ipecac is extremely dangerous do NOT use it! i used it once..total misery, like 10 x worse than what i normally even go through.

  • over use of ipecac will kill u. karen carpenter used it the last months of her life and it destroyed her heart. u will die from emetine cardiotoxicity. please get help.

  • I wonder when people will understand how hard it is to live with bulimia. It 's sad to see that some don't even want to try to understand. This disease is all about shame. Not just cause vomiting is, let's say it, kind of disgusting, I think shame come from another thing, too. Whatever, people suffering from an ED have a distorted perception of reality (MEDICAL FACT). So, YES, that's a bif offense if someone says it pisses him off! It just fuels the circle of shame...not helping at all.

  • i want to say to all the sufferers out there: please try to change ur mindset, u can do it! u are beautiful & worthy & extraordinary human beings. this disease will make u as unhappy as is humanly possible & u deserve much more. u can recover. it is all to do with WILL POWER. don't give in to ur insecurities. good luck everyone. xx

  • i also suffer from bulimia.. its not something i want to have i've been suffering from this disease for 5 years. it sucks && it only gets worse.

  • me too i have been for 5 years like you . i want to stop desperately and i dont know what to do any more it just keep getting worse as you said !

  • Hi everybody!

    I was bulimic for 7 years. I think that if u're struggled with that disease, therapy is really the best way to recover. It takes time but it's for good. When you understand your disease, why you have it, how it happened and also the way you think, then it is easier to say stop. There is so much to say about it! By the way,

    it is not about selfcontrol! Vomiting again and again creates an addiction. The problem is that you can't live without food contrarily to heroin or alcohol.

  • therapy didnt work for me, cos nothing anybody said got thru to me. my mind was too strong & inpenetrable. it was all to do with how i thought about myself. i had to internally adjust my mindset & thats somethin only u can do for urself, no therapist or doctor can do it for u.

  • personally i think shes a brave woman to be doing this, because i think that the physical view placed on all people members of modern society are just wrong, and i mean totally going agaisnt human nature wrong,

  • im a melae belemic and personally i do condole it. but for me it was because of sport and because basically i just feel fatty. can any one recomend me to a chat site for support. because i know im doing serious self harm to my digetstive system and teeth with the acid errosion. any one post a website ?

  • ment to say male there

  • go to daily strengh. wonderful support grp site I belong to. It's helped me considerably. Hope you check it out!

  • her teeth looks fine to me!

    i have bulimia, i can't stand it.

    i'm so out of control.

  • uggggggggh!!! i hate this!!!

    i wish i could set my mind straite!

    everything sux. :(

  • i know what you mean i am aswell its horrible isnt it. if you really want to gain control i find what helps me is eating a healthy meal blindfolded makes you relaise how full you really are, and because its within your daily calorie intake your still making safe healthy progress

  • I totally understand what the woman is saying. I'm exactly the same.. it sucks..

    And to MGSBOY9874: shut up! bulimia is not fun and good! .. how can you say something like that???

  • i have bulimia too...i don't know what else to do... i'm so scared that i'm gonna put on weight. friends are trying to help me but i don't listen to them .. bulimia is really a problem.=S

  • I feel the same way...I've been bulimic for 6 years now. I want to stop, and, slowley but surely, I am. :]

    But listen to your friends and the people that love you. They love you for a reason, so don't disappoint them by wasting away and dying. It's hard and very scarey and you want to stay thin, but why put yourself through all that just to be happy when every day and night, you purge to gain that happyness. It's not worth it. :]

  • have u tried the master cleanse

  • i have the same thing:(

  • truth. seriously.

  • It is nor selfish, nor shallow to have an eating disorder. It is naive and ignorant for you to even comment on this matter. You clearly need to educate yourself before expressing yourself in such a way. Have your own opinion as much as you want. But do not think that falling in love, seeing the world is ever the answer. I have traveled the world, lived in Honduras, and Germany and also have been on many trips and missions. It has not deterred me from having an ED.

    Think before you speak.

  • your a asshole who clearly dont understand this ED ....if anything they r guily of having noself control and just dont care
