Yes, it is, because the problem there is
not how many times you throw up, but the
fact that you do it.
That indicated that something is wrong
with you.

Maybe the problem isnt that your throwing
up, but that your over eatting. I have
done it before, I pig out too much, and
then either feel guilty, or just gross
because im so stuffed and want to get some
of it out, need to release, but yeah you
need to not over eat, that is a problem,
if its causing you to get sick, a few
times a week, I think thats a sign there
is a problem, so try to portion yourself
when eatting, tell yourself enough is
enough, and if you do eat to much say well
deal with it! Don't train your body to
think it can just throw up when its full.
Best of luck to you! : )

Exactly...
I think that, in the first place, you
should think or maybe even make a list, of
what makes you overeat, and then think why
you throw it all up (if it makes you feel
sick or if it's something else, like
feeling bad, guilty, with no
self-esteem,...).
It sounds to me that there's something
more than just eating, because your
motivations lead you to do something that
you may not really wish and then to try to
fix it you can do even worse without
sensing that...

I agree with the above! Why are you
overeating and throwing up? Are you
trying to loose diet? Are you feeling
bad about your body? Are you using food
for comfort?

Yes mxgurlie it is a problem if u don't
overeat and you only make yourself vomit
on occasion. Bodies aren't meant vomit
often at all. I mean ok in the last 5
years I have vomited only twice
involuntary. Vomiting as little as once
every 2 weeks or once a month is damaging.
And even attempting to vomit or thinking
about are mentally really bad for u.
Like ok it took me along time to be able
to really purge. And of course I thought
well I am not getting anything up so I
don't have a problem. Do u hear how dumb
that sounds? If u r purging ever or
trying or thinking about it u have a
problem.

Your body is supposed to throw up when
something is wrong with it, like when you
are ill. If you do it for other reasons,
that's a sign that you are going the wgong
way, ok?
Remember that it's always time to stop,
right?

It is a problem because it can easily
spiral out of control. An accidental
binge will soon turn into a planned binge
and then you will progress to binge purge
sessions that take up every waking minute
of your day. It's not a pretty sight.
The mental and physical damage that even
these infrequent b/p are casuing are doing
so much harm to you. Try and stop while
you can because every day you continue, it
will be that much harder to stop the
cycle. If you cant find yourself being
able to stop purging by yourself, seek out
help in friends or family or maybe
consider seeing a therapist to deal with
your issues.
