Please don't listen to ignorant people who don't understand mental illness!.
GOOD FOR YOU to have taken the step to get help! Most people don't have that courage!.
Healing a serious illness takes time!. I'm in counseling for something different, but it's been five years!! I was in a very, very dark place and I was in the hospital three times for extended periods!. I'm feeling so much better now; life is awesome!. But it took awhile to get this way!. Just don't stop trying!. If you fall down, get back up again and keep trying!. Bulimia is an awful, very strong disease that can kill!. But it doesn't have to and with the help of supportive people, you will get better!. Reject the strong impulse to isolate yourself and be alone with your disease; that will kill you!. Stay away from anyone that makes you feel bad about your disease or yourself!. Do WHATEVER YOU HAVE TO DO to get better!. Keep trying! You can beat this!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Good for you! The first step to solving a problem is facing it!. You've done that and you're seeing a counselor, very good beginning! If you don't feel that this counselor is helping you much then find one who will!. It may take seeing a few before you find the right fit!.
You know in your heart that bulimia will kill you eventually if you don't get a handle on it and that should be a great motivator!. I too was once ruled by a seemingly uncontrollable monster but, with God's help, and the help of others, I was able to get out from under it's hold!. Today it's been over 20 years and I am so thankful for everyday that I live without that hanging over my head!.
You can do this! Yes, you can! Share your pain with others, those who love you and want you well!. Ask for their help in overcoming this monster; ask if you can call them anytime, day or night when you're facing the temptation of falling back!. A shared problem is half solved, so don't be afraid to ask for help!.
I wish you the very best in your efforts!. Let us all know how you're doing!. God bless you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

its so good that youve realised your problem and decided to seek help
just stick to it, and then youll be so proud of yourself
i was shocked by how many people in my school have eating disorders, never had one myself so i cant really tap into their 'mind set', but im guessing it would be like someone telling me to give up sucking my thumb [which ive done for all my life], so incredibly hard to sort out and so easy to turn backWww@Answer-Health@Com
