It's been awhile since I've been on here for support. I have been doing well for quite some time with my eating disorder. My biggest issue had been restricing food, excessive exercising, and diet pills. I was able to get myself into a healthy lifestyle and have made a lot of progress. Never in the past have I struggled with buliema, but in the past week I've tried it twice and I don't know why in the world I decided to. I'm afraid it will stick and I'll struggle with a new horrible behavior.
Its easy to see eating disorders as forces greater than ourselves that we cant control. (Ive been there - I know the urges) However its important to put effort into rejecting purging. Check out the short term and long term effects of bulimia on the body and it should be easy to decide you dont want those in your life ahead. If you have a feeling of hopelessness or apathy then please seek medical help quickly.
