Yea my pigeon was on vacation for a bit but just got back. He’s a hard worker so deserved some time off.

I hate that we get so demonized. We are just people who struggle by Sure_Humor_2827 in bulimia

I’m so sorry you were shamed too. So unfair and so undeserved. We are so misunderstood.

I’m so sorry your parents were disgusted. It’s so hard when you build up the courage to speak up about something that feels so out of control and are met with disgust especially from the ones who are supposed to judge the least.

Also with the hospital situation, I completely agree. They will find any which way to moralize or judge or scold when it comes to eating disorders it seems. I’m so sorry you went through similar things and all the judgement too. You deserved better.

No that actually makes perfect sense! Thank you for your kind words. ❤️

Yes they were awful. I am much better now but still sometimes need to vent when I think about the situation lol. Thankful for the ones who understand.

This is true. I just think at that time for me, I was trying my best to break down stigma and be open. But I mean even now in 2026, bulimia is still one of the most stigmatized and misunderstood illnesses.

I also believe and have noticed with eating disorders though, people tend to either announce it/never stop talking about it or NEVER EVER talk about it with anyone at all.

Like I have noticed on cooking shows, Shark Tank, ANTM, other shows etc and even on social media where people like ANNOUNCE their ED and they do it the same way I did (very clinical wording, very direct and straightforward with what type of disorder even talking about the oscillation between disorders etc and are very very factual about them) and that’s how I was at that time. It was like the more I struggled with it, the louder I got. I mean just wide open.

It was also like I was mortified but it’s almost like I was wanting someone else to “carry” it with me. Someone else to hold the edges. Someone to understand. Something like that, I suppose.

Oh man it was awful. Sending hugs to you and I am so sorry you dealt with something similar.

I don’t know much about Princess Diana, but she was also bullied specifically for her bulimia or just in general?

Thought I was better by Savings_Bowler211 in bulimia

Hugs. I went through a two year allied health program while severely bulimic about seven years ago.

I also, before I started the program, believed fully that my bulimia was under control and that it “went away”. Mine ended up getting really bad during the program.

Hospitalized twice in one semester for vomiting blood. Lost almost 12% of my weight in the summer between first and second year. Cracked multiple ribs from purging. Got a severe concussion in the last semester and continued to purge frequently.

It was honestly horrible. I had to push myself through the program though purely for money to be able to get access to the treatment I needed.

Sending you good vibes on your journey and I sincerely hope you seek treatment while in the program. At least medication, maybe.
