i still cannot stop my bulimic habits after 3 years. i have been noticing that my health has slowly gotten a lil sluggish these past 3 months. i cant taste food that well, i cant eat certain foods cuz it hurts my tummy too much, and other such problems. i dont know if this is due from me throwing up almost every day. im assuming so. i feel that this disorder has taken over my life and i will never stop feeling the urge to get rid of food from my body. i have lost alot of hope. i guess this is my last chance at gettin better. when do i get my life back? =(

Welcome to the boards Janelle. You have a really pretty name.
I have to ask to if you are seeing a doctor? They are the ones who can best help you. This is a sickness like any other serious sickness and you need to get help managing it and to help you get better.

Don't give up.. There are people who care. Keep coming and talking to us.
Hugs,
Heidu

When do you get your life back? I think for a lot of people, not all but a lot, you get it back when you really want to get it back. It is only then that you will either win the battle on your own, or get teh help that you need. Pretty scarey stuff when your body is telling you to stop, but you keep going any way.

is it really bad that ive been doingthis for 3 years? i . its hard for me to take this disorder serisouly when its been a part of my life for so long. my boyfreind wants me to see a doctor. i have such confilicting feelings on what to do. i feel so selfish for worrying about my wieght, almost concieted. when all this bad stuff is going on in the world and with all the starving people in the world that do not choose to live in that kind of lifestyle. so i have feelings of guilt. but i know that throwing up everyday is not good for me. i think that bulumia is a part of me now. its my freind that has helped me through tough times. im so confused still. theres no point to this post. =/

I think the point to your post is that you are confused and scared and want help. Your boyfriend is right, you should see a doctor. They can offer help, support and guidance to get you thru these problems and help you find a better and healthier way to live and eat.

Take care of you,
Heidu

fighting any eating disorder is hard, and it is even harder when you only have one person to support you..

Get in to see a doc, even if you are scared take your boyfrined with you..
Take it from somone who has fought the battle longer than you, and is figting it right now, ...

Trowing up, is not healty, and it does not matter if you just started or you have been doing it for 3 years. STOP !!!!!!!!

Yes I know that is a very harsh word right now, but stoping is the one thing you do need to do.. The more acid that eats up your teeth, mouth and other areas that it touches at it goes out, will start to detroiate, and you will have no teeth in the back of your mouth, they will all rot out.. Which may be scary, but hey, it is the honest to god;s truth..

Seek help. Via a doctor or parent (i do not know how old you are) Get help soon..
We want to see you post, but we want to see youy start figting this thing too...

I think one of the strongest things you are doing is wanting to stop !

That in its self is a big thing, and so is admitting you have the problem.

Im not very clever on this subject because yeah well ! Trust me though the consaquences aren't worth it, im so trying to get better and i really understand how hard it is girl. Ive had some experiences that have scared the pants off me and each time it gives me a wake up call . . . cause 1 day it might be to late and thats really not what i want in all honest truth, sometimes it might feel like it but its not the answer.

I am a new member, but your subject line intrigued me. I am recovering from anorexia nervosa and have been battling E.D. since August of 2004. I wonder every day when I will be "normal" again every morning when I wake up. Things will get easier once you begin seeing someone and expressing yourself in a more healthy way. It helped me so much to vent and I realized that food and calories and my body image wasn't controlling my life as much. I wish you the best.
