Girlfriend has bulimia...

[munchausen]

Well I found out very recently that my girlfriend has bulimia and while I do have some personal experience with this I'm not particularly well informed about it. She says she has next to no control over it and I believe her when she says this and I just wanted more information about this so I can try to be more supportive.

This site seems to be pretty helpful for how to be supportive when a loved one has bulimia. It seems pretty informative.

Yeah, I'd look it up on the internet- you've chosen a support site to start which is a good place. It's good that you want to find more information and help her with it, you're clearly someone who is worth holding on to. Just encourage her to talk to you, but don't pressurize her. Remember that you need to look after yourself too. We wouldn't want you breaking down.

Take care xx
