Bulimia carries deep shame. My husband would not be supportive with something like that. He always tells me he does not understand any mental health issues and is not empathetic. He mocks me as it is and has called me certified ably crazy. Self harm would just throw him over the edge. It is all embarrasing. I have never been hospitalized and he has never paid attention to the burns. I try not to burn in my arms during the warm seasons.
