Bulimia is an eating disorder followed by the symptoms of not eating for a long period of time followed by binging, extreme overeating with large amounts of food at one time. After overeating, the person then feels guilty, depressed, and suffers from low self esteem. To overcome these feelings, the person then proceeds to vomit and throw up everything that they have just consumed. This pattern continues with every meal that they eat. The image above shows some of the extremely harmful effects that bulimia has on our bodies. Depression, liver/kidney damage, stomach ulcers, and an irregular heartbeat are just to name a few. Not only is bulimia extremely hazardous to ones health but bulimia is also a huge mental block to overcome. If you feel as if you are suffering from any of these symptoms above and the cause might be from an eating disorder, please do not hesitate to call 1 (800) 330-0490.
