Can you have bulimia and anorexia at the same time?!


Question:

Can you have bulimia and anorexia at the same time?

Someone who eats less than 400 calories a day, but sometimes binges...which to an anorexic is like 2000 calories....then purges? is this called anorexia and bulimia?


Answers:

most definatly. i think that alot of times people whom develop anorexia find that its difficult to NOT eat, so they'll do "good" (by good i mean not eat much) for like a week or two, but then they binge and then feel so guilty after. and sometimes they self harm to relieve the stress, but often times they just throw up to relieve all the stress, but then they realize "hey i like eating, but it stresses me out, but if i can just throw everything up after i eat it, then the problem is solved" then thats when people become bulimic.
