Bulimia - The story of a girl lost in her own mind

This is an awareness video....made to be seen by anyone with bulimia seeking comfort that they are not alone in this - there are people who understand and trying to help others to see it, and to those maybe trying to help a sufferer of bulimia and wanting to try and understand more about the disorder.

This is my personal interpretation from a girl's perspective (this does not overlook the male sufferers - its just a personal expression) I do not condone eating disorders or try to promote them in any way. I am currently in recovery - however I have faced alot of abuse through reaching out for help from people who just dont understand. This is why I made this video.

I am having to remove comments from people who are using this film to find thinspo buddies..... this is so upsetting - please please find some help and dont go down that road. Any further comments that are posted of that nature will be removed.

I am still a sufferer of this illness but with the support of friends and family and support groups I am moving on slowly. Please do not hestitate to contact me... help and support is out there ... you just have to be ready to ask for it xxx

Thanks for making this video Becca, anyone who doesnt understand eating disorders and reacts to someone with an eating disorder with anger and, judgement needs to watch this.

@mecheleteresa thanku - I am still a struggler with this disorder and its so hard without support. I was hoping this would send a message. I am glad it has been well received.

[becca89ful]

no no no please.. this is not what you want - this video is not a promotion for bulimia. Bulimia is scary and dangerous - there is nothing wrong with your weight, and you are very young - your body is going to be going though loads of changes and your weight will naturally change very quickly. Please please dont go down the same road I did. Be strong - I am always here if you need someone to email x

This makes me feel so bad forcalling people fat and stuff in the past. I never knew what went through their mind. I never knew how bad things really were for them..I'm sorry. To everyone I ever hurt..

One more thing ... what song is this?

[EvalinaxCullen]

@XXMadiiBearXX its hello by evanescence :)

This describes one of my friends that I'm really is worried about, I need as much advice about this and how to help her, because nothing anyone tries to do will get through te to her, and I'm scared one day it's going to be to late..

Fuck society. Girls, u are ALL pretty the way u are!!

[Pwnagemasterdude]

I am ashamed to live the current society. A society that judges what is pretty and what is not by so many variables that in the end mean nothing. So what if a girl is fat? That girls has the best personality ever made. So what if that girl is goth? She's very artistic. So what if that boy is gay. At least he's happy. Society has created a world where people need to shape themselves to be what is perceived as good. This is wrong, and hurts so many people. I am ashamed, and wish we could go back.

@recko323 Im Bulimic. If you want to help your girlfriend, surround her with your love. Dont try to change her. Keep her busy. Tell her how much she means to you, treat her like your world. If you know shes doing it. Tell somebody. Its the only way she can get help. I know its hard, but darling, you have to help her. Its dangerous, and scary. She needs help. Ill be the first to admit that. Just love her.<3

[recko323]

my girlfriend is bulimic,and it's a hard thing to cope with because i want to get her help but she does not want to be helped and makes me feel bad because i love her.For a entire year i've tried to give her space and it hurts when i see her doing harm to her body.I don't know what else to do.
