Why would you go to a health forum site to find out how to hurt yourself? Everyone here is trying desperately to get better ~ so don't even think about learning how to make yourself throw up!!!! I was bulimic for 10 years & almost died a few times, so take it from me ~ you don't want to go there. It is not a solution, just makes many more problems.
Go get help for your feelings & to learn how to eat healthy food without being overweight. Good luck!

please don't think about starting this. A friend explained to me how to this 12 years ago when I thought I was overweight. I have been dieting, purging ever since and am adicted to laxatives for the last couple of years. It's hell! So eat healthy, find yourself hobbies and friends but don't start with this!!!!

Don't do it!!!!! Bulimia is called a disorder. Asking how to purge is like asking how to slowly kill yourself, painfully and maliciously. Consider yourself so blessed to have never started down the path of having an eating disorder. Anyone who has never had bulimia would never understand what I am about to say, and anyone who ever has had it will understand completely: I would rather be extremely overweight than be under the control of this disorder. Please, if you don't do this for yourself, do this for everyone here who wishes they never chose to purge that very first time.
