Hi everyone,

I tried posting before but it doesn't seem to have worked so giving it another go.

So its a bit of a long story but I think I am bulimic but in denial. I need some help/support/ideas how to recover.

So here goes: in June 2011 i started a diet, but then started to have disordered thoughts and behaviours around food. I felt 'bad' later on because i knew what i had done was damaging to my body.

i went home for the Easter holiday and when living back with my parents didn't purge once but when i came back to uni last week i returned to ED behaviours .

i know this is bulimia but i am in denial i guess and i don't know what to do now???

please help!!!

Hey,

You have recognised it so you aren't in complete denial and that is a good thing. Have you spoken to your GP about all this?

It's difficult to speak to my GP as I am registered back home and I don't have a doctor here at uni. .



I had been doing ok, hadn't purged for a week but did it on saturday

It is always going to be difficult however u need a doctor at uni simply incase you break a leg etc... your GP is the one that pays of the treatment...if you are out of your normal GP area this can be tricky.

I never lost my home GP...when I came back from uni I knew I still had them present and I could still go and she her and I have now re registered with her having finshed at uni for good. You need to have a GP up there just so someone is looking out for you.

It does help.
