Diagnosed with bulimia

I’m 17 and was just diagnosed with bulimia yesterday. I haven’t purged since because all the risks really scared me but I still have the urge all the time. I just want to be skinny like stick skinny and it sucks. Any tips on trying not to purge and throw up? Please help :/

I can only suggest take each day and celebrate each time you don't as an achievement. I've now managed a couple of weeks without throwing up and some days are easier than others. When you feel the urge can you distract yourself with anything that helps. I ring a friend after eating or plan to eat just before I have to go out etc. so I don't give myself the opportunity, I also check emails, social media, play games etc. anything that takes the focus away from the food I've eaten and try rationalising that the food is not bad etc.

I'm not sure if that helps at all, I wish you well, don't listen to the negative self critical voice, you are worth too much xx

Check out Amazon Author christopher Lord Evans where i take you through the causative effects and treatment of Anorexia /Bulimia living which will help you, and as a master Hypnotist i would urge you to consult a Hypnotist in your Area, because we speak to your subconscious mind helping you to resolve your issues,Talking therapists cant help you ,doctors cant help you because they refer you and they are not trained in that process but you must be over 18 years of age unless you have your parents consent by a signature before anything is carried out.Dont be surprised but celebrities also seek help for the same problems.
