Bulimia Reviews

My name is Melanie and I'm Bulimic. I'm 34 and I'm bulimic. I have an otherwise nice life, great friends and family and am reasonably smart and creative....yet still.... I'm bulimic. Like many! For me it started 5 years ago. Yep late on in life. I'd been through an abusive relationship in which I almost died in and had been doing ...  Read the complete review

From my teens I have struggled with this horrendous condition and in this review I would like to shed some light on exactly what bulimia is like to live with and how it affects individuals and their families. My aim is to spread awareness and show how normal people can be affected and to inform about the signs of bulimia and share my experiences ...  Read the complete review

I had Anorexia for a while which progressed into Bulimia and the cycle was repeated. If there was a name for the two together then I would have put in a request for it but there isn't. What there is, is a fine line between the two so maybe I was more of one than the other at different stages. Bulimia is an eating disorder that affects ...  Read the complete review

A friend of mine recently made a post on her livejournal mentioning a couple of sites and groups about anorexia. I went and had a look and started thinking about eating disorders in general and about all that's happened to me. There are so many people suffering from disorders of different types. I started thinking about my experiences. ...  Read the complete review

I wrote this a few years back and wanted to put it on here, not to offer advice, or a diagnosis for anyone but as a story which some of you may well feel you have written yourselves. I know when I read some of the other reviews on this I felt like that. It was a piece a doctor asked me to write to other sufferers explain what was happening to ...  Read the complete review

This is not going to be very easy to write and some may find my rather detailed personal experience alittle too descriptive. I wrote this for another site but thought maybe someone here may like to read it. I honestly can not remember the first time I made myself sick after eating. Looking back it seems to have started when I was about ...  Read the complete review

It is my belief that Bulimia is often the result of a serious trauma or problem in your life, this was the case for me and other people I know to have the same problem have also agreed. People often think that this disorder is a clear cut issue over weight but often the problem is rooted much deeper and is not so easy to solve. For instance my ...  Read the complete review

I don't really know where to start. I’ve never really spoken openly about my experiences, and even though this is anonymous, it’s still a bit scary. Even if I think back to when I was playing with my little ponies I cannot remember a time when I didn't feel like an outsider. The fat one. Although I was never ...  Read the complete review

When I was 14 I had sprouted about half a foot in a year and was a tall, skinny, awkward, high-jumping freak. All legs and elbows and bits that stuck out (albeit not on my chest). About a year later and I had padded out somewhat, infact I was practically bursting out of my jeans and had to hold the flies up with a safety pin. ...  Read the complete review

Debi was a perfectionist. Debi was always better at school than her friend. She was a fantastic athlete. She wasn’t particularly gifted academically but she studied hard, revised and made up the difference of the natural intelligence that had eluded her. Debi was 5ft 2in tall, she wasn’t particularly attractive, but she had a certain ...  Read the complete review

Last year I noticed my best friend was losing a lot of weight over a very short time.She also ate very large amounts of food but had massive guilt trips about it and ofetn disappeared for ages after meals. I recognised that she might be suffes=ring from bulimia and asked her how she was losing so much weight.After a while she confided in me ...  Read the complete review

Bulimia is an eating disorder where people eat a large amount of food and then make themselves sick, take laxatives or both. It is often a very secretive illness and leads to awful guilt feelings. Most sufferers appear to be coping well with life although they are different behind closed doors. Most bulimics are a normal weight so the ...  Read the complete review
