Understanding Bulimia Nervosa
The Cycle of Bingeing and Purging
Bulimia nervosa is an eating disorder characterized by repeated episodes of binge eating followed by compensatory behaviors such as self-induced vomiting, excessive exercise, or laxative use. Over time, this disorder can lead to serious medical complications, emotional distress, and difficulty managing daily life.
Recognizing the Signs of Bulimia:
Frequent Episodes of Binge Eating: Consuming large quantities of food in a short time.
Purging Behaviors: Self-induced vomiting, excessive exercise, or misuse of laxatives and diuretics.
Obsession with Body Weight and Shape: Intense fear of weight gain and excessive focus on appearance.
Secretive Eating Habits: Hiding food, eating in private, or disappearing after meals.
Fluctuations in Weight: Noticeable changes in body weight over short periods.
Physical Health Decline: Sore throat, dental erosion, dehydration, and electrolyte imbalances.
