The thought of telling ANYONE about my bulimia absolutely terrifies me, but in the end I confided in a couple of friends who have been just wonderful and supportive and lovely!
But there is no way I could possibly tell my family - or my closest friend who is like a sister to me? I have only confided in people who I can keep at arm's length - i guess I don't tell those who are closest to me because it would interfere with my b/p circle!
But I want to get better so I should tell them. But I just can't bring myself to. Does anyone else have this problem?

You would be an overweight person, and it would be more obvious to anyone, how unhappy you were, cause they would be able to "see" it . But WE ALL (unfortunately) have figured out this "magical way" to still be skinny, by abusing food in a way that no one would be able to tell how much we're suffering inside. Please tell someone you trust and will be able to keep your problem just between you two. You need someone watching you and looking for you to abuse food, so they can stop you, and you will also stop doing it so much because you CAN'T anymore, and that is what you need to help you stop this horrible cycle.. You NEED someone there to KEEP you from doing it. Whether it's going to eat with them, ordering food and lookng at it , discussing (with that person) what's it's doing to you (emotionally) to have this food infront of you, how you are feeling.. sadness..stress.. whatever...and WHY you want to over-eat , and WHY that would make you FEEL better...and please cry if you can,cause that is what you're body NEEDS and WANTS to do...not b/p. It's super dificult and scary to put it out in the world and REALLY face it but, Trust me it's the BEST thing you could possibly do for yourself right now.. please feel free to mess. me if you wanna talk :)
