End of my rope

Posted by success

I am trying to recover from my bulimic behavior.  I try to eat healthy everyday but sometimes I just want to eat and eat until I feel like I could burst.   Finally after many years of this behavior i have reached a point where it is difficult to purge.  My gag reflex does not seem to be in th same place(don't know if that will return)  I exercise and eat well.  What else can I do?  I do not have time or the money to see a psychologist so I am trying on my own.  Have ai ruined by gag reflex forever and should I see my doctor about it.

Hello..I feel your pain. I'm very overweight now but was once severely bulimic and found myself binging and purging at least 3 times a week.  It ruined my teeth and my health and I eventually had to seek help to stop.  Please go talk to your physician as soon as possible. Good luck and god bless
