Well, since the 7th grade, I'm in 11th grade now, I've battled with bulimia. For periods of time I have constantly thrown up, and for other periods I have completely stopped and thought I was over it. However, for the past 3 months I have been on a throw up streak, and am SICK of living like this.
Can I help myself without telling someone? I'm scared to death that my friends, or my parents will never look at me the same way if I do tell them. I just want to be healed privately, but I'm not sure how I can do this. What do I do? My mind and soul are just so beaten down from all these years.

I thought I could fight it alone....But I was just kidding myself. Once my friends realise what was going on they supported me, Sometimes not in the best ways (as in they forced me food and watched me 24/7) But in the long run it did help. To know someone cares for you makes you feel better and easyer to fight. I really think it would be a good idea to talk to your best friend. If there your true friends they will help you.

At the moment I know my best friend is showing signs of turning bulimic. I wish she would come talk to me, And if she doesnt soon ill confront her cause i know having your friends helps. You might get some tough love at the start, and it could even upset you but its for the better.
