Welcome to the :bowl, :hugon Lindsey :hugoff
I am sorry you had to come here (ie that you have an ed) but I am glad you found us!!! This is a great place for support !
Congrats on your two b/p free days. I hope you will manage to keep going !
Do you have a therapist? Does anyone in your life know about your bulimia? If not I would encourage you to tell someone and to begin to seek help - this is not something that you can deal with alone...:ugh

There are some great coping strategies on this website - ie ways to cope instead of turning to bulimic behaviours. My favourites are to journal, take a hot bath, do little things for myself and to draw with colored crayons, which reminds me of childhood and safety...

Anyhow, nice to meet you. Let us all know how you get on !
:love Jelly

Welcome Lindsay!! That's how my mom spells her name. She says people always spell it lindsey. That's great you've gone **** days, I hope you can make it **** now! My longest without b/p is **** days, so I'm going to try to make it much longer! :happy I hope you're doing well!

:love Sarah

What made yesterday a no b/p day? What did you do differently?? Learn from your experience.

Yes, you can be b/p-free. Why do you think you run to the ED behaviors in the first place??

:grin & :peace
