I was wondering if there where any bulimics on this website, recovering or still suffering. You don't have to write anything on here i wouldn't wanted people to know if you didn't but could you please give me an add or a message.

I've been trodging through with bulimia and anorexia for the last 3 years and i am trying to stop the binge and purging. Managed 3 months before but i've done it on my own and i could really really do with talking to someone going through the same thing or has been and how they stopped.

Thank you, hope you're well. x

    While I don't have any history of eating disorder, I just had to tell you I think you're very brave for facing your health issues head-on. I think a lot of people will find courage and inspiration in this.

    Good luck to you!!

    I think it's a daily struggle that a lot of people on MFP are afraid to admit... :)<3 You Julia and Faerie!!

    I've been struggling with bulimia for 2 years. I Can go a few weeks then fall right back into it. Good to know I'm not the only one on MFP.

    <3 5 year struggle. Every day IS a new day and that's what you have to remember, not to punish yourself if you slip up. It doesn't happen over night :)
    Feel free to add me (anyone) or message me any time yall need to talk :)

    I struggled with bulimia and anorexia when I was younger. I mean... I still struggle but I dont give in (to the bulimia) anymore.

    I suffered from an eating disorder (diagnosed as EDNOS) for a number of years (around 6) and although technically recovered every day is still a battle. Feel free to add me.

    And well done on 3 months!
