  • you know whats even worse than having bulimia? Being a guy with bulimia. I can't believe it has gotten this bad. Everybody just assums girls are the only ones suffering.

  • a binge isn't because they want to , its because they try and starve themselves to be thin, and get fed up, or super hungry, and then eat, and binge...

  • @transfixedtoast I agree with you, I know of someone that has bulimia not because she wants to be skinnier but because she isn't happy and wants that "control" over her body. The control you can't grasp in life- heartbreak, loss and so on.

  • @queen5300 Why do you get sick once a week, that's not healthy. Get that checked out, now!

  • @ilovemydogdexter That's not nessesarily true, it's more a way of numbing feelings, and it becomes an addiction that is very much psychological and physical rather than just a cycle of starvation and overeating.

  • People go through Bulimia because they worry more about how people look at them so therefore they starve themselves. Those individuals should consider their health rather than someone's opinion about them.

  • @NightMaeLife Congrats!! :) May I ask you how you recovered? How exactly did you completely stop bingeing? Thank you!!!

  • I'm a guy with bulimia and it's so tough... I don't know what to do anymore... :(

    I wrote a blog entry about it..
