i heard ipecac can kill you on the first try. please be careful.
and i have both bulimia and anorexia and i am 99 pounds 5’7” so i guess bulimia does make you lose weight. i dont recommend it though. its a total hell.
*hugs*
“This is the last time – never again.” Literally thousands of times I’ve said that now.
Hang in there, hun. Keep hope.

im right there with you hun…coming up on 6 years ednos. its such a horrible life. I’ve been seeing someone weekly for a year now. it helps a lot but hasn’t changed my ed. i would suggest doing weekly therapy…i would go crazy if I only saw my therapist once a month! and i recently started going to EDA meetings and let me tell you…it is so comforting being able to talk to people in person who know exactly what you’re going thru! good luck and keep fighting ~ you deserve a better life

okay i suffer EVERYDAY with bulimia…
but i souly survive on Ipecac!!
i probably spend more than $80 every 2 weeks on Ipecac alone.
i dont care what overs think of me but i know im an unhealthy person. :T
ive been a sufferer for almost 6 years- i hate it – yet i can’t stop. everytime i say “this is the last time”. . . but it never is. . . i’ve been having councelling sessions – 1 a month for the past 4 months- that doesn’t even help – i hate it- it make me hate me- it makes me angry- and at time horrible to others around me because i get so touchy!
I wonder when people will understand how hard it is to live with bulimia. It ‘s sad to see that some don’t even want to try to understand. This disease is all about shame. Not just cause vomiting is, let’s say it, kind of disgusting, I think shame come from another thing, too. Whatever, people suffering from an ED have a distorted perception of reality (MEDICAL FACT). So, YES, that’s a bif offense if someone says it pisses him off! It just fuels the circle of shame…not helping at all.
i want to say to all the sufferers out there: please try to change ur mindset, u can do it! u are beautiful & worthy & extraordinary human beings. this disease will make u as unhappy as is humanly possible & u deserve much more. u can recover. it is all to do with WILL POWER. don’t give in to ur insecurities. good luck everyone. xx
therapy didnt work for me, cos nothing anybody said got thru to me. my mind was too strong & inpenetrable. it was all to do with how i thought about myself. i had to internally adjust my mindset & thats somethin only u can do for urself, no therapist or doctor can do it for u.
It pisses you off? You dont suffer with it every day of your life! How dare you even say that? You are a bad person.
no offense to anyone but this disorder pisses me off. I just thinks its bull ****.
me too i have been for 5 years like you . i want to stop desperately and i dont know what to do any more it just keep getting worse as you said !

i also suffer from bulimia.. its not something i want to have i’ve been suffering from this disease for 5 years. it ***** && it only gets worse.
Hi everybody!
I was bulimic for 7 years. I think that if u’re struggled with that disease, therapy is really the best way to recover. It takes time but it’s for good. When you understand your disease, why you have it, how it happened and also the way you think, then it is easier to say stop. There is so much to say about it! By the way,
it is not about selfcontrol! Vomiting again and again creates an addiction. The problem is that you can’t live without food contrarily to heroin or alcohol.
go to daily strengh. wonderful support grp site I belong to. It’s helped me considerably. Hope you check it out!
i know what you mean i am aswell its horrible isnt it. if you really want to gain control i find what helps me is eating a healthy meal blindfolded makes you relaise how full you really are, and because its within your daily calorie intake your still making safe healthy progress

ment to say male there
personally i think shes a brave woman to be doing this, because i think that the physical view placed on all people members of modern society are just wrong, and i mean totally going agaisnt human nature wrong,
im a melae belemic and personally i do condole it. but for me it was because of sport and because basically i just feel fatty. can any one recomend me to a chat site for support. because i know im doing serious self harm to my digetstive system and teeth with the acid errosion. any one post a website ?
your a ******* who clearly dont understand this ED ….if anything they r guily of having noself control and just dont care
her teeth looks fine to me!
i have bulimia, i can’t stand it.
i’m so out of control.
uggggggggh!!! i hate this!!!
i wish i could set my mind straite!
everything sux.
I feel the same way…I’ve been bulimic for 6 years now. I want to stop, and, slowley but surely, I am. :]
But listen to your friends and the people that love you. They love you for a reason, so don’t disappoint them by wasting away and dying. It’s hard and very scarey and you want to stay thin, but why put yourself through all that just to be happy when every day and night, you purge to gain that happyness. It’s not worth it. :]
XxXxX
I totally understand what the woman is saying. I’m exactly the same.. it *****..
And to MGSBOY9874: shut up! bulimia is not fun and good! .. how can you say something like that???
