How can I stop being bulimic without professional help?

Can you stop being bulimic without perfessional help?

  • Answer:

    Look at yourself after you self induce vomiting/ take laxatives or purge in any other way. Look. Focus on your face and note down all the good things and don't even spare one thought to your flaws (if you have any) then work your way down to the rest of your body. Have a positive look on your body in all aspects. Take a long time concentrating on what is good about your body. Then watch things like Fat Families, or The Biggest Loser, or another trashy TV show where they have obese, or overweight people and allow yourself to be grateful that you don't look like that. Allow yourself to be horrible and comment on their unfortunate state. It sounds cruel but this will skyrocket your self esteem. When you do find yourself in a situation where you will compare yourself to overs, don't. Just concentrate on something else. If you do compare yourself think about that TV show. You don't look like that do you? Be grateful for that. Now it is time to eat. To start off with you don't want to starve at all, just eat fruit and vegetables and drink a lot of water. This is not a diet. You want to be eating so you don't binge and actually gain weight where you feel you have to purge. Everyday add a bit more fruit or vegetables, then the next week have a slice of bread every day etc etc, so you gradually build up to a normal diet. When you want to purge contact someone immediately. I hope you get over this. I did, so can you I hope. Remember this is gradual change. Try not to purge. This requires effort. If it doesn't work contact medical help, and this is not medical advice
