Hey all,
I have had anorexia and bulimia for the past 3 years. It is scary though, that it isa lifestyle that I am not yet willing to give up. I wanto to be thin, and dangerously restricting eating, or overexercising, or whatever, seem to be the only ways to achieve this! Does anyone else out there agree with me? I am not continuing this lifestyle because I want to, I feel as though I have no other choice. I did get help for my anorexia back in 2004, put on heaps of weight and got healthy.... but slipped back into old habits and am suffering from anorexia again.......

Hopefully others in this forum can support me and help me in my quest to SLOWLY change my habits and become more healthy. I have had so many dieticians, psychologists, psychiatrists and counsellors tell me what to do and what not to do, but it just doesnt sink in.

Oh, by the way, my name is Nicole and I am 21 from Sydney, Australia.

Hope to hear from some of you soon! :) ↓

Hi Nicole, Welcome to the site!

My name's Lucie, i,m 19 and I have been Bulimic for the past 5 years on and off.
Wow thats got that off my chest!

I to have been trying to change my ways and have been successful for a while then just seen to slip back in to my old ways.

I like many others would like a great figure- but thats what i go to the gym for. I am starting to believe that my ED is a result of wanting to be in control.

O well i will leave it at that but if you ever want to talk i am always here,

Hi Nicole,

Im new to this site to i only registered at the begining of the week.

I have had bulimia for the past 6 years. Im only 19. Dont no how it started really just preasure from school my Dad all sorts and it was the only way i could see to do something. My lowest weight was 5st. Im now 7 but want to lose more coz i feel really fat again.

I've tried all sorts but it doesn't work weither thats because i don't want it to im not sure.
