Bulimia... :'(?

Okay, Im twelve and Im suffering from Bulimia. My guidance counselor and mom know, and took me into the hospital. Now, I came back from it, and all I thought about was throwing up. I think Im going back into the hospital again. And Im so sad, :'(. Has anyone else been Bulimic, Can you tell me your experience? It's comforting for me to hear other people say there stories... Because, Im really sad. And I know Im young. =[

I've never struggled with an eating disorder but my best friend was bulimic all through junior high and then high school. It was awful. After years of doing that to her body she had other health problems. Chronic headaches, muscle and bone loss, the list goes on and on. Eventually she ended up in the hospital and stayed there for six months. I went with her family to see her once every two weeks. Little by little she gained weight back until she was healthy again.
Now she is 24 and has finally freed herself from the nightmare. We still hang out and when we look back at pictures of ourselves at 15 and 16 she is amazed at how unhealty and thin she was. She always says at the time she thought she was enormous but in most of the pictures she was thinner than me.
I can't relate to what your going through but I've watched someone i care about go through it and if you really want to stop you need a good support network. Your family and maybe a good therapist or counselor. If you can't find a therapist who you like enough to share you thoughts and feelings with then tell you parents until you find one who your comfortable enough with and let them help you.
Until then you can try one of these sites below, they both have anonymous support groups
Best of luck sweetie!

bite your finger every time it goes near your mouth

im sorry , my sister is belumic but she never talks about it,
all i know i read a really really good book about it once, (loike a fiction one, not one with facts and stuff)
so im sure you could find a good book to relate to
or
look up belumic stories
on google, or on yahoo answers
i hope this helped and best of luck sweetie :) 鈾?/div>

I know some one really close who did. She eventually died. So please, I know this is hard, but make your self stop.

Hey, i know your pain and what your going through.

Being bulimic is something that alot of people go through, i am not bulimic, but was anorexic for a while.

Just try not to be sad and NO matter how much you might disagree with what the counselor or doctor might say, try to listen to them because they are really just there to help you, and to help you overcome your sickness.

Just hang in there and you'll be fine, trust me, try not to be sad and just make the best of things! Good Luck!

I've never been bulimic but I want to wish you the best. I can understand how it could be really hard to get over. But anything is possible and i'm sure you can fight this, trust in yourself and you will go far : )

i suffered from anorexia and still do sometimes to this day. i got so sick i was in the hospital and weighed next to nothing. i looked terrible. and it felt like the skinner i got and the more weight i lost the worse i felt about myself. sweetie you are so young. you have so much growing up to do. dont hurt yourself like this. you are so much better than that. believe in yourself. know that you are beautiful inside and out. have faith and confidence in yourself. please try to get better. my thoughts and prayers are with you.

aww, im 12 and i just recovered from it, although i stopped vometing, i started not eating enough, but when i felt like vometing, i started singing, and dancing, and got it off my mind...

i konw someone who was once belemic.
my cousin.
she bit her fingers. don't worry about being too fat because chances are you aren't. think of this, CUSHIN FOR THE PUSHIN. lol.
don't throw up and prove to your mom that you don't need to go to the hospital! many itmes you feel like you want to throw up when you eat a lot and when you head heavy gross food.
try to balance out your diet. healthier foods (salad) and stuff like that.

but really you have soo much to look forward to! don't ruin your life because then you are going to get esophogaus problems. you really have to try. i know it may be hard but you have to try.

keep a diary. write in your diary every day. write what you eat, and if you think about throwing up. it will help you get out your problems

i hoope i helped sweetie. xox

you ain't sufferin you chose that path!!! niggga now you gotta pay the price!!!! you should cut off yourfingers

I've never suffered from bulimia...but I AM a 'recovering' anorexic, so I know the toll an eating disorder takes on your body and mind.

In a way, bulimia is worse on your body than anorexia is. The forced vomiting is very hard on your (young) body...the gastric juices in vomit erode your esophagus, ruin your teeth...your hair starts to break and fall out from lack of nutrients, you get spider veins (tiny veins that burst) in your face from the force of vomiting and that's only the damage you can SEE. That's not even counting the fact that your body has nothing to keep it going...no vitamins, minerals or fluids and all of your organs eventually shut down from malnourishment.

You need treatment. This doesn't go away on its own. Don't be sad...once you start to get better, your mood will change as well...you have so much life coming, that you're not going to know where to put it all. You haven't even started to have fun yet...your best years are ahead of you...give yourself the life you deserve.

wow.
i can relate to you.
i was bulimic when i was in 7th grade and the beginning of 8th grade. (i'm a junior now) and it really sucked.
i had to go to the hospital four times due to it. i got soo sick, and finally [1 1/2 years later] figured out how big of a dummy i was being.
there's more you can do than being bulimic.
try dieting, and working out 3-more times a week.
thats what i do now.
im still not skinny, but ive toned up and im curvy and sexy now! (= hehe.
but baby darlin`, you'll eventually see for yourself, that your only hurting yourself.. and NOTHING good comes from this.

good luck sweetheart.
