I've been bulimic on and off for 20 some-odd years. I've been through Behavior Modification therapy; it helped for a while. One of the problems I know have, is that I KNOW what being bulimic can do to the body. Does that ever stop me? Unfortunately not. I've never actually binged either, it's more of a feeling full that I can't take.
Yes I was sexually abused, yes my parents abused alcohol and drugs, my 1st husband is an alcoholic, and I'm a mess.
Oh yes, I'm also an emotional overeater, I gained about 20 - 30 lbs when my brother went to Iraq. (He's fine.) I also tend to eat when I'm bored; most of the time now, I come here instead.
