For me it is the purging that feels good. I would eat anything. It could be a head of raw broccoli or a can of kidney Beans.......anything to feel full enough to purge. Everyone's Bulimia is different. You need to work with a professional to find out what is causing these urges. Is it because of painful loneliness, not feeling good enough, not feeling worthy, stress intolerance?

When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood. Looking for safety, protection, being cherished and loved can often be normal unmet needs in childhood, and the survivor searches for these in other adults. This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.
