I see food and my stomach turns to stone. I beleive myself to be weak if I eat. I believe myself to be fat if I eat. I am not sure where this belief comes from. All I know, is it is slowly killing me. I know it is killing those I love, and yet i feign to not care. I want to show them I care, but I cannot show them with food. Is there anything else I can do?

I am bulimic and up until a while ago you couldnt keep me away from food i was binging and purging constantly but now i cant eat anything, if i see food i panic and i also know this is killing me, ive eaten about 1000kcals in a week and thats is all in juice and fruit, im sure your family know you care already without having to show them.

I'm sorry you are having such a rough time. All I can tell you is to see a doctor and a therapist.

Maybe just try a little at a time. What about start on nutritious fluids. Get it into a routine and build it up from there. What do u think?
