bulimia. scared.
14/f
i think i developed bulimia around last november. ever since thanksgiving i've been throwing up like everything i eat. i used to binge but i stopped and i try to only eat when i absolutely have too. but today i ate some chips, freaked out and purged and i threw up some blood. i'm scared. it's never happened to me before. what happened? what do i do? i don't think i can stop i really can't. if i do i'm afraid i'll get really fatter.
i'm like 5'6" and last time i checked 121 pounds. normally i check everyday but i've been afraid to lately. i don't know what to do. i'm scared. my mom kinda knows about it but she's only said something to me twice. i don't get how i could overcome this. how?
any advice?
thanks so much.

You need to go get some help because there isnt a reason for you to be throwing up everytime you eat. If you wanna loose weight then diet healthy dieting thats wayy better because when you start to eat again and not throwing up you will gain more weight back. 121 pounds is very good for you and i dont think you need to be doin that to yourself your hurtin yourself and if you dont think you can stop by yourself then you need to go to the hospital fast because your not getting enough nutrients in your body. and your perfect the way you are and if people dont like the way you look who cares. Start bein healthy diet dont throw up!!

alright, i'll be real with you.
a year ago, i was in the same situation
as you are. my best friends mom is a nurse
and she walked into the bathroom when i was
throwing up.
great huh?
its a bad thing to go through. i'm 5'2"
and i weighed 88 pounds at the time.
i'm 15..
if your vomit had blood in it.
thats really bad.
when you throw up, it can cut the inside
of your throat.
you really need to talk to a friend, or
a doctor, or someone thats close to you,
that you can trust.
i'm serious.

Your vomit had blood in it? This could be something VERY serious. I would call your pediatrician and tell him/her about it, and he/she will tell you whether you should go to the hospital or not. This is really serious. Tell your mom what happened, that you're bulimic. Everything. Just let it all out. You'll feel so much better emotionaly, and after you get proper treatment you will get better physically, too. They won't necessarily make you eat to gain weight, they will make you eat so you can get all the proper nutrients for your body. I won't garuntee you that you won't gain weight, but you have a decision to make whether to live or to die. The decision is totally up to you.

Please go to your mom,you need help, i had the same problem and the doctor said the blood is from the stomach acids that have eaten away at the throat, and esophagus and that i would end up bleeding to death, laying in a puddle of blood, its very hard to stop but counseling and family support will help you. your mom cares or she wouldnt have said anything at all, look at it like this if it was your mom would you want her to come to you for help? would you want to help her? she loves you more than you love her, even though its hard to believe sometimes. go to a school counsler if you need to, or a friend have someone talk to her for you, write her a letter, just get help now please. its no easy road, and WHEN you stop, if you make a mistake and do it, just keep trying, you will be healthy and happy and feel good about yourself i promise! Lots of luck BRIE

You need to see a counselor and a doctor. You need help. Bulimia is a serious disorder & you're just now getting scared? What the hell is wrong with you? Oh wait..
Just see a doctor & get help before you kill yourself.

well if you know you cant stop and you want to stop talk to your mom or someone you trust and get some help and if you tell them your afraid of gaining weight then they will probably help you honestly just start exercising it works like walk an hour everyday i usualy walk 10 minutes after i eat something trust me it will work and just drink lots of water trust me you be fine but you need to stop throwing up cause you can die from that and i'm sure no one wants you dead so please talk to someone about it and if yuo cant write a letter to someone or something but please get help
