Should i be worried...

i think i'm bulimic...
i started last yr when i was fourteen around christmas. it didn't last very long, not even a month, before i got caught. i continue to deny it to the person who caught me, but she doesn't believe it. that is why i stopped, for a while. every once and awhile i would try to purge, but would chicken out before anything came out. then i went to a sleep-away camp, and i over ate, so i purged. after that i purged about once or twice a month, when no one was home. then recently, for about two or three months, i have been purging once a week. i find it easy to convince myself that it is okay.
i don't think that i really am bulimic. i don't know!
am i bulimic? should i be worried? what do i do? help?

Hello there,
From the sounds of things you are showing bullimic behaviours, but that doesn't mean that it has to carry on.
What were the reasons that you started purging? Was it all about how much you'd eaten or was there a particular situation that came up on the occasions that you did purge?

I have been struggling with bullimia since I was sixteen - I am now twenty six, and only last year did I get help. I suffered for ten years, and I have to say, the longer it went on, the harder it was to give up. So my advise to you - talk to someone now before it goes any further.

Where abouts are you based? Talk to your GP if you can't talk to a family member - but I would advise learning to trust someone who can help you.

Good luck.
