How can I stop being bulimic without professional help?

How can I stop being bulimic with out seeking medical help?

• I thought I was passed it, I have gotten the best boyfriend and without him knowing about it I have managed to stop, because of him :) My eating habits aren't good, I skip meals and don't finish others. My boyfriend always compliments me on how sexy and skinny I am, yet sometimes when I do eat, he makes comments like, wow you can eat a lot, or if I have a salad from the restaurant Sumo Salad, he will be like, your going to be a sumo. Yesterday I made myself throw up again, first time in like 3 weeks, earlier I had eaten a salad and all I wanted to do is throw up. When I first became bulimic it was really bad I would throw up, up to 6 times a day even if I just ate an apple, and I would constanly exercise. I don't want to go back to that because I am aware of the consequences. I am 19, about 168cm and I weigh about 53kg, and I know I'm not obese but I cant help it. Should I tell him? I don't want to scare him. Only my best friend and cousin know about it because I needed someone to talk to. Thanks :)

• Answer:

  idk if your bf is the best to talk to. he seems to point out stuff that are triggers for you. i am skinny too, my bmi is around 18-19. i've ate too much lately, felt guilty for a while, but now i think i'm feeling better. i think you should get help,this throwing up kind of mortifies me.
