i am 25 and a mom of 2 and been suffering from bulemia for like 8-9 years now. recently it has gotten much worse. i do not have anyone at all to help me and i dont have insurance to go to any doctors. i do not want my children to know or i dont want to pass it on to them. what do i do? i know the easy answer is to just stop but like today i found myself binging big time. no one knows my secret not even my boyfriend (we do not get alone very well and i can not tell him). i have never known a person who will go out and eat like i do. its discusting.

Hi scootsy,


There are plenty of people that eat like you do, you are not alone. It is unfortunate that so many suffer this way.


If you want to get help, please look around for therapists, with experience with eds, that operate on a sliding fee scale.

I wish you could get into therapy or an eating disorder program. Maybe there are free counselling services offered somewhere. I know that the Christian welfare group here does that.


As for working through it on your own, can you identify the things that trigger your binges so you can deal with them in a different way. Also, I try to keep everything out of the house that I would binge on.


Keep posting (and I'll keep replying :) )
