man..I'm to hardcore and G to admit to it. But yeah.


advice?

mm..

you're going to need help. I'm sorry to say it. Especially bulemia. Cuz it will lead to binge eating > barf!

Scary cause i know this is bigger than me (no pun) and you honestly can't do it alone....But i refuse to seek help....Orr...I just haven't got around to it.

other advice...
Work your stomach muscles..to avoid sticking anything down your throat....Strong abs will throw that back up by firece force. after that you'll be free to barf incognito and on the fly. No one will ever suspect. Carry **** for your breath..and don't become a DRUNK!

later.

My mom went through a period where she went through anorexia when I was a kid. Scary stuff... especially seeing her waste away in front of my eyes. Thank goodness she snapped out of it not too long afterward.

like i said...it's an addiction like drugs or alcohol. not easy to just snap out of it or to not start to begin with.

ok...i'm actually trying to be serious for once (unlike me in other threads at times)

not starting is best but it happens

I almost died 3 yrs ago from having them since 17. i was anorexic AND bulemic at the same time. the feelings still surface and like an alcoholic wanting a drink at times...i fight it.

i try to use what i have learned but was wondering if anyone has been through it and what they did

how is that good advice? if you wanted to lose weight, you could work out and diet. what you're advocating is unhealthy, not just physically but psychologically

Soo..did you seek help? Maybe i'm not as willfully strong as you... And i deny myslef alot of ****! not by choice but by often being broke. what did you do. ? I can't kick this habit.

BUT..i did manage kick alcoholism...SORT OF! but that was almost a forced choice...doctors telling me my PANCREAS will die out if i continue.

Hmm...

Life threatening expierence really motivates one huh?

eating disorders aren't always about weight. some start that way but it's not really about that
