Q: can't stop myself from puking after eating

New User, Becoming EHEALTHy
well, ever since I was young, I've had a problem with myself. It started as anorexia in 8th grade, but I soon got over that. In 9th grade, I slowly became bulimic. It had gotten pretty bad where I'd be puking 5-6 times a day. I ended up going to a treatment program for other issues I had and felt I shouldn't notify them of my bulimia because they make certain rules just for that (for example, you may not use the restroom 1 hours after you eat, while you are in the restroom, someone must be WITH you in there WATCHING you)
I quit throwing up so I wouldn't get in trouble there.
Since then, I have only made myself thrown up once (in 2 years) and I feel pretty good about that. Mentally, I guess I'm okay and I wouldn't classify myself as bulimic, however, It's hard to control physically. If I feel bad about what I ate, I'll physically get sick and just start puking even though i try hard not to. This happens probably about once a week. I don't know if this is from bulimia or maybe it's anxiety problems, but does anyone know what I can do to help this? Or does anyone else have this problem?

Hi, there, welcome to the forum
Yes, you can make yourself stop doing that, sure you can - and that's all for your own good, it's the best that you can do. It costs a lot - I can tell - but it's really worth it. So, give it a try, again and again!
