Bulimia and worries?

Alright, I've got this bad habit of making myself throw up. It helps though, I'm losing weight, but i don't want it to turn into full-blown bulimia... For long and how frequently (in say, a day) do you have to throw up before it starts happenning on its own and becomes bulimia?

There is not a set number of times that crosses the line into bulimia. It's hard to explain but it's kind of an obsession. I started with that same bad habit, and it quickly developed into bulimia. I knew that it was wearing down my tooth enamel, messing up my gag reflex, and eating away at the tissues in my throat, but at the time I didn't know some of the more harsh effects. When you throw up, you lose all of the electrolytes that are currently in your stomach. If the electrolyte count becomes too low, it can send you into cardiac arrest. I eventually made it to this point, but I was lucky: I work at a hospital and was quickly resuscitated. Sorry to digress; my main point is there is no specific line that is drawn but STOP NOW!

Even if it doesn't turn into bulimia....you'll have other problems

Throwing up causes tooth decay because of the stomach acids

Throwing up can cause a blood vessel to break

Throwing up causes problems with your esophagus because of stomach acids.

If you think all that is worth losing a few pounds...have at it.

Your already full blown, once youve done it once you are doing the behavior so it is bulemia. It doesn't mean your screwed though, just figure out why you would want to put yourself through that discomfort and grossness for the sake of looking weight. If you are feeling like your doing it as a control thing make some changes. Throwing up like that screws with your electrolyte balance and you could end up with anxiety attacks, also burn your esophagus, thin hair, ugly teeth, dry skin,,,infertile. Besides that it's self hate, you deserve better, talk to someone who doesn't judge you but has your best in mind.

If u r making ur self throw up, u r already bulemic. U need to stop. The constant regurgitation of stomach acids erodes ur teeth and depletes ur body of important electrolytes. U can have seizures, uncontrolable muscle spasms, cardiac arrest, and death. Use diet and exercise if u want to lose weight and keep it off.

you are already bulemic. you need to seek help.

actually this is bulimia. You need to get help, I have been recovered for 3 years now. I started out just like you and got up to vomiting 4 + times a day and now have severe acid reflux and scar tissue up and down my esophagus. I was hospitalized many times and almost rupture my esophagus on two occasions, (which would result in death obviously)
Don't do this to youself. It is one of the worst things ive ever been through and for what? to lose five pounds to look good for some idiot kid in your math class. Its ridiculous. Be smart, life is too short.
