Tip of the day (12)
Hello all my beautiful followers! Today’s tip isn’t from me, it’s from a website I read the other day. I’ve tried it and it seems to work pretty well (: So here it is: Mix a teaspoon of mustard and water together, and drink it right before you purge. It makes it easier to throw up. But please remember that you are bigger than your eating disorder! Stay beautiful xo

Anonymous asked: I need help.

I have tried for hours at a time to purge, but have failed every single time. I have tried fingers, toothbrushes, going as deep as I possibly can, all to no avail. Help me? Is there a magic trick?

The food staying in my body leads to panic attacks, and I have massive binges. I feel the purging is a lesser of the evil over laxative abuse and panic...

A friend and I discussed life today:
There was a question we discussed: How long could we simply flit around and allow ourselves to drift in this world. I said that I suppose having goals - getting good grades, friends, wanting to make money…etc. was a consolation in itself. But I agree with her that living that sort of life is akin to not living.  On the 15th of September 2009, I promised myself that I would one day discover the...

omgshelooksjustlike asked: I've read your blog all the way through and it makes me so sad. I struggled with eating disorder for three years and although I eat normally now I still feel like sometimes I'm on the verge of going back to how I was. I don't think I will ever be completely rid of it. The saddest thing about this blog are the people who contact you asking for tips on how to get an eating disorder or...

Hello beautiful followers! Today’s tip revolves around a common misconception: Brushing after meals or not? Most advice I’ve seen online says not to brush directly after since it promotes acid brushing against your teeth. But I find that only applies to those who purge till bile comes up/do not purge right after a meal. I brush almost after purging because the alkalinity of my...

Hello beautiful followers! Ever think about…the future? I’ve recently been thinking about it a lot, to prevent myself from thinking about food/weight!  I’m applying to Oxford University or Brown University (these are my top choices) for where I wanna study after high school. Where do you guys want to go/any recommendations for colleges? I’d love to get to know more about...

Hey beautiful followers, how have you guys been? I received quite a few emails on howtobebulimic@gmail.com; have not been able to reply all of them because I just started school, but I will try my best!  In other news, recently I have been trying to cut down on my purging (once a day, max!) after comments about me looking “a little bit skeletonish”. While I must say the comments are...

What is your greatest fear/insecurity?
Someone asked me that on my Formspring the other day. Obviously, my answer is my weight/looks. I deeply believe that people are beautiful, in their own different ways. And I honestly think that the heart matters more than the face. But I just can’t help myself from caring a lot about the way I look - life’s like that, isn’t it? We may think/say one thing and say/think another. ...

I feel insecure all the time, in fact. I guess having an ED does that to you, huh? We try to see ourselves as beautiful but sometimes things just don’t work out the way you want it to.  I finally fit into the smallest dress size almost everywhere I go. Sometimes they even hang a little loose. But I just can’t help feeling like that would look so great on somebody else I know.  ...

People who are on the verge of turning to an eating disorder. I think the period right before someone becomes bulimic/anorexic is the worst, because it’s an inner struggle with yourself, a battle between doing what is right and accomplishing what you want for yourself. Now I can say that every single person has a different story as to why they developed an ED. So I urge everybody, whether...
