For a while now I have been eating junk
food and vomiting. But I am not sure if I
actually am bulimic. I don't vomit 20
times a day just once or twice, I don't
vomit every day in fact I have gone weeks
at a time without. It's just recently
become more common, but still not to the
point where I do it more than a couple of
times. Am I bulimic or just on the way
there? I really hope someone can tell me.
If I am not properly bulimic there is
still more of a chance for me!

Sorry to be so dramattic, but its a
reality we all face from ana and mia. In
reply to what you said, you donthave to be
throwing up 20 times a day to be a
bulimic, I think its the state of mind and
the purge / binge cycle that classifies
you as a bulimic.. But you dont want to
get to the stage where you are diagnosed
with bulimia. As you said, there is still
hope, and if your on this website you have
probably read hunderds of stories about
how eating disorders are destroying
peoples lives, bodys and minds.
You need to think about what causes you to
eat the junk food and then want to throw
it up. Is it because you dont want to
focus on another problem? Is it about
having control? I dont know anything
except from what youve told me, so I cant
help you much. That is good that you dont
do it more than you do already, because
theres probably a lot of damage atm being
done to your esophagus, liver, heart and
funtion of your body.
How long since you started this? Post me
back, hope you are doing well.
