. Dear Passionfruit. Umm, I'm nor a Dr or medically trained, but what I do have is a series of severe eating disorders that now go back some 30 plus years. It wasn't known about so much back then, basically you only heard/saw the ravages of full blown anorexia. Def no mention of the psychological side of any eating disorder, not in anorexia or anything else. It's only my opinion but I think you need to be careful or you will go headlong into a full on ED. The fact you're already feeling much better once you've purged, and I DO DEF UNDERSTAND that (so do I), plus you don't want your Mum to hear or find out, Hun it's very difficult hiding it from who you live closely with. If it's at all possible could you see your family Dr, maybe for a referral to therapy?The quicker you nip this in the bud, the less of your life you'll throw away. I've basically wasted 30 plus years to eating disorders, and been in psych hospital for it. I don't want you to do the same thing. Please do come back and let us know how you're doing, good bad or indifferent.
