im pretty new here but i had a question i was hoping to get some views on. i was wondering if people think therapy really is useful in getting over bulimia? im trying to find a therapist because im really getting scared. i cant get a handle on this bingeing and purging and i just dont know if anyone else can help. even a therapist. it seems so out of control. i binge and throw up at least once most days, sometimes up to three times and ive tasted blood a few times afterwards and am having a lot of stomach pains, nausea and cramps that come and go but i just cant stop eating. the more scared i get the more i need to eat and then i end up throwing up again. i think about trying to distract myself and i have tried different things but then i get more and more anxious and scared because im not allowed to eat so the urge to eat gets even more powerful and i just cant imagine how that could ever stop. it seems so impossible that someone else can help me fix this. so i guess im wondering has therapy helped others in this position?
