Horsepenny, I am sorry to hear about your experience. That is actually very similar to what I experienced. I would fast, then binge, then purge, then fast again. It is a horrible cycle. Only recently diagnosed with an eating disorder because it's tough to get bulimia taken seriously sometimes if you aren't underweight. Which, by the way, is not a requirement for a bulimia diagnosis according to the DSM IV. Even psychiatrists are misinformed.

I hope you seek out help and treatment. It is a difficult thing to confront but it can be done.
