Hello! I am a 20 year old girl. I have always suffered from complexes for my appearance, mostly related to weight. I'm not full, but I'm not weak, which I've always aspired to. When I was a small, very close relative, he kept telling me that I was "fat", "your belly and ass are over" and the like ... at first I didn't pay attention, but when I entered puberty it became a fixed idea. Years ago I started going to the gym and lost a lot of weight, but I was never happy with the result. I had a friend who encouraged me and while we were together I felt strong and well. We broke up about a year ago and that's when my problems started. Out of grief, I started eating more, at one point it slightly affected my weight. I already mentioned my weight problem ... I started to cram and then vomit, initially once / twice a week, then daily. I was tormented. I started having trouble sleeping, my menstrual cycle stopped, I became irritable and somehow hated the world around me. Some time ago I told my closest friend about my problem. With her help, I didn't vomit for about a month and a half, and I thought I could do it. I felt happy to have her support. However, she pulled away from me and I started to fall into my bulimic episodes again ... I know that I hurt myself infinitely and I want to be cured, but somehow I still fail. Please advice from people who have had the same problem ...

The best way to deal with this is to make an appointment with a psychologist. He will listen to you and help you help yourself as much as possible while it's time.
You don't seem to go to the gym properly .... Cardio and squats and there will be a change. In addition, you can afford to eat once a day. There are so many videos on YouTube
Start meetings with a psychologist. I went through the same thing as a student. I got the problems you mentioned above, plus teeth and anemia. I had recurring episodes in intense sessions as a student, but I stopped on my own. Pay attention to your emotional state. When you get tired of drinking water, move. Jump in place or squat. Good luck.
Drink plenty of water, it will fool your stomach that you are full and you will not eat as much food as most of your stomach will be filled with water. So I lost 5 pounds in 2 months
Not that there is no way to deal with the problem on your own, but I do not advise you to do this heroism at all. Make an appointment with a psychologist and start therapy. Friends and family are great support, but only that much. They cannot be our rubbish bins and permanent lifebelts. One must take responsibility for one's problems and deal with them with the necessary attention and concern. Professionals have had dozens of cases like yours, some were much more serious. Talk to a psychologist who will know how to solve not only the problem of bulimia, but also the problem of self-esteem. I'm serious. For me, this is the only right approach to the situation.
