  • Hi there, I'm sorry this is happening to you. I have struggled with bulimia for the last few years too, but now i am in recovery. In my experience, the most beneficial thing was to tell people. It's a big step and it's very scary but it's very freeing. The fact that you've posted this means you've recognised something…
  • I'm from Gloucestershire :P
  • I understand. I've only ever been bulimic (although i have had/have some ana tendencies). I sometimes find it very difficult to relate to anorexics and yet part of me is jealous of them... But as littlemili says all of us here have something of a dysfunctional relationship with food, and so can still offer support and more…
  • I've just started work as a Healthcare Assistant in my local hospital but it's not what i really want to do, i really want to work in a school. In a ideal world, i would also be a comedian :)
  • Public. I am mostly proud of the way i eat, so i'm not ashamed of people seeing it! Also, I am recovering fro bulimia and still have my bad days occasionally. I am not ashamed of this either.

  • i understand too!! I binge eat. I am actually a recovering bulimic, but i haven't always purged. People around me don't believe i still have a promblem if i don't vomit, but binging is still very distressing and damaging to my body and my mind! REcently i've been allowing myself 2 days a week to binge, it does feel like…

  • I can't really add an awful lot to this, but i felt the need to reply as i am currently trying to recover from bulimia. The odd fast day, some people claim does wonders for your body, others claim it is detrimental so i'm not sure where i stand really. I feel that i am beginning to change from, to put in bluntly, a…

I've been to 20weeks of councilling about a year ago, helped but didn't cure. I'm not waiting for CBT. I eat mostly vegan and have…
