Bulimia: How Can I Get Help?

Talk to your friends and family. Let them know about your condition, and tell them what you need from them to speed your recovery from bulimia.

Join eating disorders support groups and attend regularly. Becoming a member of an eating disorders support group is a vital part of recovery from bulimia nervosa. It helps you break through the secrecy of bulimia and feel connected to others struggling with the same issues you are.

Seek psychotherapy with a mental health professional who has experience treating eating disorders.

Hire a coach to work with you virtually, by E-mail and telephone. A coach is not a psychotherapist, but someone who can help you set goals and accomplish them. By joining a virtual teleconference class, you will be linked with others like you all over the country. Yet you can remain anonymous. It's a great way to start to BEAT BULIMIA from the privacy of your home or school.
