    How long have you been bulimic for? I can help you the same way i helped myself out of it. Just PM me, go to my profile and send private message, 'cause i don't check these often.

    If you throw up because you want to be thin... then you must start eating healthily, that way without throwing up, you will be slim and healthy anyway.
    I am sorry, I have never been anorexic or bulimic, though perhaps I was once on the verge of it, just the very pre-starting point.
    If you can, let some friends and family know, so that they can help and support you.

    ok well i duno if i can be of much help cuz i havent had bulmia but i am anorexic sorta kinda.. but ne ways thats not the point.. well u need to tell someone.. it doesnt really matter who u tell as long as u tell someone that u trust alot. that way they can be there to support u and be there for u when u wana throw up. or think of it like htis. if u wana throw up think of someone or something that means so much to u and think that htis person or thing is telling u not to throw up or sumthing like that. sorry if this didnt help any

    I am currently recovering from anarexia/bulimia, The only pereson that can really help you is yourself, you have done the hardest part by admitting you have a problem, I know you think you cannot tell family or friends but believe me it makes it alot easier, and they will find out sooner or later perhaps when you are in your death bed I know that sounds hard but it's the truth. I was close to dying I wieghed 6 an a half stone not that what you way makes it any the more dangerous, I watched what it done to my family, But what really opened my eyes was catching my 5 yr old little sister sneaking her dinner in2 the bin. I think you should spk 2 who eva u r closest 2, and make an appointment 2 c a doctor. IM me if u wnt 2 talk Take care o yourself hun Sarah x

    I agree with sarah,
    You have to find a way to help yourself out of it, because no matter how much other people want to help you, it starts with you.

    Talking can really help, freinds and stuff would be great but its totally understandable that you feel you can't talk to them. You just have to look inside yourself and find the courage to do everything you can to get yourself out of this.

    Much as people who are going through the same thing might want to help and share experiences, in my opinion it's maybe better to talk to a professional or someone who has recovered completely. Talking to people in the same situation might be comforting, but in the end it isn't going to help either of you get better, that comes from you alone.

    Hope you can find your way out,
    Stay Strong and never give up hope.

    I just recently stopped bulimia, and to be honest...it wasn't a hard thing for me to do. I just realized that I was tried of my throat always aching and i knew that if i didn't stop soon, i would really hurt my body. Maybe you should do some research on bulimia so maybe you'll have a better understnad of what you're doing to yourself.

    If you want to be thin, you need to find an alternative, like eating healthy and excercising so you can feel like you are working to be thin just as befiore, but now it is a healthy way. I had anorexia, and even now I still get tempted to fall back into old habbits. Bulimia becomes a way of living that will kill you. Now you don't really want that do you? You just want to be thinner, which is okay. So meet with a nutitionist and see what you can do about it. Tell you family you are trying to loose weight and have then help and encourage you to eat right and healthy. Join a sport or something, be active with friends so you motivate eachother. Also I would definately go to a doctor and see what damage you have done. If you have messed up your body with bulimia, now is the time to try and fix it instead of letting it go. You will be surprised how you friends and family will be willing to support you be becoming healthy again. It is a sign of strength to admitt you have a problem and then take steps to deal with it. Your family will be happier to find out by you telling them, rather than they finding out through a different way. You have a long life ahead of you, so do what you should to live it long and happy and healthy. Hugs. You can do this, and you will be so happy when you escape bulimia. A site called recoveryourlife.com has a pretty supportive eating disorder forum that I have found helpful in my own struggles. I am willing to help you in any way I can, so let me know.

    Always,

    ^ Good it didnt work, you dont want to be bulimic. It f*cks everything up.

    Ok, first of all try telling someone about your problem. Talking about it with someone who cares about you is a BIG help. Just talking about it helps.

    Try and distracting yourself when you want to purge. Read a book, Write a poem, Go for a walk. Anything, as long as it isnt purging. Keep yourself busy. I personaly find that its when im not busy i tend to binge more often. Write a list of things to do when you want to distract yourself, then when you wanna purge go and do one of these things.

    Keep a log. When you want to purge write down why you need to. Then write down why you shouldnt (Health problems etc...) Try doing this every time you want to purge.

    Try eating properly. Not too much, not too little.

    Say to yourself i can purge and binge 3 times in a week. When you manage this go down to twice a week, then once a week. Once a fortnight... Etc...
    Dont beat yourself up if you do purge. Just say to yourself "I wont purge tomorow."

    These are some of the tips people have given me and they do work. Try them. Hopefully you'll recover.
    PM me whenever you want to talk.
