I am a recovering Bulimic as well, @anon20613941. I find that I’m most tempted or prone to binge and purge when I feel I haven’t been heard, and/or that I need more control of my life.
I’m sorry because I know how crappy it feels to give in to the “craving” for those comforting endorphins. But don’t beat yourself up about it. It’s a genuine need that just needs to be filled some other way.
When I binge and purge, and I believe I’ll at least always struggle with the temptation, I feel bad, but have to let it go and “reset”. Next time, I know I’ll try to fulfill my need in some other way…

I always binge but I’ve never puked myself after… my ■■■■■■■ meds haven’t been workin with my eating … never thought about puking myslef I have always laid here miserable after… maybe that ■■■■ will help

i used to just binge when i was younger but i started purging afterwards. that behavior got really bad recently to where im just purging without even doing a full binge beforehand, just a normal meal…i need to bring it up to my therapist, ive never talked to a mental health person about it. ive been doing a little better by really restricting my intake so i dont feel a need to purge but even then i still have thoughts to do it and the urge and its gotten to the point where my stomach just hurts and i get pukey whenever i eat, so i feel your pain

Don’t beat yourself up! Tomorrow is another day. Look at the stress your under. You need to be your own friend right now and forgive yourself. But that being said, be your own friend and don’t do that again. I love you.

I’m going thru the same problem. I blame the ap’s Bc if it wasn’t for the fact that anything I eat makes me gain weight I wouldn’t throw it up. I exercise a ton too bc it makes me feel like I deserve food that way. Don’t worry tho bc I used to have this issue in high school and was completely fine for like 8 years. Then I got sz and gained 70 lbs on Invega and had to fix it… I mean I lost the 70 lbs but I had to work out daily for 8 months. Try exercising but don’t overdo it, it helps with the appetite and need to purge
