I Dont Think Im Bulemic?

I dont like the way I look, I know that im
not totally fat but I feel I am
overweight. I would like to loose weight.
I throw up aprox 14 times a week but I
dont force myself to do it, I dont need to
do anything to make myself throw up, I
just do. I dont think im bulemic
but I know I have a bad outlook on the way
I look.
??

The signs are there, but only doctors can
tell you if you are or you are not...
You are killing yourself if you continue
doing that.. :\

Its not something I would really suggest
trying to aquire. A close friend of mine
had anorexia and bulimia and it digusted
me, but now im starting to do it- I dont
know why I am, it just seems so different
now that im the one doing it. Making
yourself throw up isnt a pretty
thing..Just think about someone walking in
on you doing it.. It wouldnt be something
I would like to see someone else doing,
but yet I do it all the same. I dont know
even why I do this , it seems to be a
natural response now..

look, of course it seems different and
stuff, but just because you can do it now
it doesn't mean that you have to do it.
You have nothing to prove to other people
or so it seems, so you should just stop
purging and stuff and start getting
healthy before you die. And this is a
serious advice.

Sometimes, it's not about how much you
weight. It's about what your thoughts are
and what you do because of them and how
much that controls your life.

I know... I've been suffering from
bulimia for some years, like about four
years now, I guess, and it starts with the
obsession about the food and the weight.
I'm stuggling against it. Stopped purging
and binging and i'm doing a better eating.
Belileve me, everyone can be fine without
an eating disorder.
My first step, if you want to know, what
stop vomiting. First I stopped doing it
so often and then I stopped for good.
Take care!

I know just how you feel, I felt the same
too. And I thought a lot before comming
to a forum and tell my problem, but I
really needed to talk, even if no one
would give me an advice.
It helps a lot? :)
anytime, I be here - or send me a private
message, if you ever want to talk in
private.
Cheers :)

Not doing it is the best thing at all,
definitelly. You can both fight those
urges and be strong enough not to do it.

If you are truly thinking about quiting
talk to your dr or start a journal and
write down any thing and everything, it
can also show if you are improving or not
and see if you might need some professonal
help.
Good luck to all of you!

And you seriously think there is nothing
wrong with you and you aren't bulimic.
Please tell me you are joking

I totally agree with melissa- the point
here is helping getting better not helping
hurting ourselves.

Wow. So, the reason I found this thread
was because I was searching about bulemia
and finding blood. Anyways, I had your
same problem when I was 14. I was throwing
up, but I never made myself do it, so I
thought I couldn't possibly be bulemic.
You are bulemic. If you don't believe me,
try to stop. Here I am 7 years later still
struggling with the same problem. My
therapist once told me the next time you
want to throw up, do it in the mirror. It
is horrifying to see yourself do it. It
really isn't normal, as much as I wanted
to think it was. Like I said, it is a very
ugly disease, evidenced by the fact that I
STILL struggle with it everyday. I just
hope you realize that you are bulemic, and
that whether or not you have to stick your
finger down your throat (or any other
object, such as the spoon someone
suggested..), it is not normal to throw up
your food.

One really bad side effect of throwing up
repeatedly, that no one has mentioned
here, is that the stomach acid will eat
the enamal off your teeth. Its very sad to
see young beautiful women in the prime of
their life with that tell-tell bill-board
right there for the world to see. It can
also cause you to have a heart attack. If
you ever feel sharp pain in your chest
when you throw up, take this as an early
warning sign and stop immediately!

throwing up that often is serious, you may
not think so because yoru not forcing
yourself to as you say. but any person
that throws up that often is doing damage
to there stomach and esophagus

You're still making yourself throw up
whether you need to use your fingers or
not...I used to think it wasn't a serious
problem because I could just lean over and
purge whenever I wanted to after eating,
it wasn't like I had to force it with
fingers, etc., but you do damage all the
same to your teeth, esphogaus, throat, and
it is a conscious decision whether you
throw up or not, it wasn't something that
just happened in my case, I did have to
get up and go to the bathroom and decide I
was going to purge and then I
would...though in my case, I was more
anorexic or ED-NOS as I didn't really
binge before purging and restricted a
lot...
Many bulimics are normal weight for their
height or even overweight.
Please do get help. It's not normal to be
throwing up your food that often.
