Hey sir, my girlfriend is bulimic, she said she feel good when she dont eat, she throws up blood sometimes. Now she realized that her friend is having an eating disorder, she tells me that she have to be smaller than her, i tried all i can to convince her not to. Is it normal when she wants to kill herself when i want to tell her mom about it? What should i do? Please comment and help me out. Anyone here with experience about this, please do comment.

My best guy friend has Bulimia. He doesn;t listen to me, he doesn't want my help....But I think he really does want my help because he actually told me...I;ve been meaning to tell his parents...but when I thought about it, his parents aren't the most supporting people on the planet.....what can I do?? I'm from mexico, so is he....and we are 16 and 17 years old...PLEASE HELP!!

@lole180595 No matter wat happens u have to tell his parents!! I kno u said they aren't that supportive but its about there son and his well being!! You should consider calling a eating disorder help line to see if they can help, they will also give u and ur friend helpful rescources, therapists etc. to get him on his way to recovery! Hope this helped! -Lindsay xoxoxo

[Nicollete22]

Is this way of theraphy practiced in israel as well? What are the exact % of recovery ? And was it tested over a long period in terms of not getting bulimia back?

Thanks

Hi Nicollette thanks for your comment. I dont personally know of anyone doing this in Israel but that doesnt mean there isnt. There is no long term scientific research so the only data I have is from my personal clients. Those that I know of have remained cured. Remember you cant 'have' bulimia, bulimia is something someone 'does'. When the person learns to eat regular healthy meals they establish a new pattern of thinking, a new habitual way of being. This new way of being becomes the norm.

I've always believed that counceling in bulimia was more an obstacule that actual help and everytime I said that to people and refused help they would think that I was being stuborn or in denial. The thing is that I've always been aware that the solution was in finding a way of training my brain, make myself aware and reset my control patterns. I've done that trough medidation but I'm glad that there are people in the scientific world that think in the same way and successfully help people.

Thanks for the comments. For many people is seems that bulimia is just like a TV show in the mind, one they endlessly star in, one that repeats over and over again. The cure for bulimia, it seems to me, very much lays in being the 'director' of the show. Meditation can be an excellent route to gaining charge of your day to day thoughts. It is very much a training issue, one way or another. The clearer you become in your mind about where you ARE going, the easier it is to get there.

This is the only video (or analysis on bulimia for that matter) that I found that really describes the process that happens in the brain of a bulimic. The TV Show analogy is a very good one.
