Hi, I'm not really new to the forums, I've just simply forgotten my password so this is my make-do account.

Anyway, in the past few months I've become sort of obsessive about my weight, I am not overweight but it seems that becoming overweight has become my biggest fear. Because of this, I have resulted to makong my self puke after I feel that I habe eaten too much, I've become so used to making myself puke that I can puke on queue (Yeah, I know jow weird that sounds :L) but also I feel a great sense of relief and ease after I have been sick, so my question is, am I bulimic or is his just a phase of some sort, is there any way to stop? Has anyone else gone through the same problem?

Some extra info: I am 15, though 16 next month, 6'1, male, 82kg... Not sure if any of that isn relevent but yeah, there it is :)

*Please ignore the typos, I'm using my tablet!

You might have bulimia, but I'm not a doctor. It's not just a phase and you should get help. Your bmi is in the healthy range, but your attitude towards food is not healthy. Frequent vomiting can have many negative health effects. You should see a doctor as soon as possible.

This kind of obsession about my weight and only throwing up at certain times is how my bulimia started and eventually lead on to anorexia. This isn't healthy and though you seem an okay weight if you continue with this please try not to lose much weight, or at least keep at an average.
Even if this is just a phase please be careful, please. If it continues i suggest seeing a doctor just to check in and make sure your okay.
Oh, and i'm not sure what you mean by 'puking on queue' but if i understand correctly it could be to do with your gag reflexes not working.
Here to help if you need anything okay?
