Yes having both anorexia and bulimia is quite common. Not eating and then eating and purging is the most dangerous ed of all.

I think you should see a doctor about this because battling both ed's is very difficult to do on your own.

Yes you can be both anorexic and bulimic, I am.

I used to severly restrict calories, something to 100 a day, and then purge everything and anything I ate or drank including water. I would suggest that you start seeing a doctor immediatley, because it is alot easier to battle both if you catch them early.

Goodluck, I am here if you need someone to talk, or just listen.
-best of luck
