Why do they think Bulimics are never over weight? We take in thousands of calories in one sitting and you can never throw up everything plus if you binge on sugary foods and things with frosting, that quickly gets glucose in the blood, triggering insulin which shuttles it into the cells and stores it as fat.

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.
