I struggle with bulimia every single day. It is a lifetime affliction and I have to use my will power constantly to overcome the compulsions. I havent binged or purged in over 6 years, but everytime I eat, there is the impulse purge. IT IS a difficult siutation to treat, very, and my advice is to get her professional help because left untreated it can, literally, kill her. Also, the family will benefit from treatment by understanding what she is going through so they can help her develop coping skills and strength in fighting it. AND IT IS A FIGHT, a daily battle. I'm sorry you are all going through this, I wont lie to you, it's a very big and difficult struggle but she CAN overcome it. She can! Best of luck to you all.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 824065Bless you for telling us your story AC and for your courageous battle. I can't imagine what that must be like. Another poster stated that there must have been some traumatic incident to cause this. Perhaps..but I will say this. She has a sister who does not have this problem. And the dad is a cool guy. But I think her mother (my friend) experienced this problem. She went to Overeaters Anonymous before I knew her. I didn't want to pry so I didn't ask a lot of ?s but I think her mother has overcome this problem. I know she LOVES to eat but is always very skinny...I don't know.
