hello i am 21 and i have an eating disorder i think i dont really know.. so i was wondering if u lot could help me out..
basically i throw up every time i need solid food, i dont know why.. the only thing i can eat without throwing it up are biscuits, cuppa tea, toast, fish and little things that can even satisfy a little kid's stomach.. am losing weight and i really need help.. i think i have bulimia but then again i dont force my self to throw it just comes out right after am done eating or sometimes while am eating
It is possible there is a medical condition causing you to involuntarily throw up...however, if you have made yourself throw up in the past, it can become involuntarily. I think it would be best to see a therapist who specializes in eating disorders for an evaluation. You may also want to check out the website edrecovery.com it is run by a lady who has had eating disorders in the past but overcame them and has since founded a center for the treatment of eating disorders. I think it is imperative that you make an appointment quickly because you are losing weight and not being able to keep down foods. This can cause damage to your heart. Please get evaluated and start feeling better soon.

Thats not bulimia! Bulimias when you eat and puke for the sole ourpose of loosing weight. Normally they starve themself and binge eat and then get scared and vomit. They FORCE themself to puke just to loose weight. You have a medical condition.

Please seek a doctors advice, for sure. Go to your local and regular medical doctor and let them know.
Until then, eat things that you know you wont puke up and are filling and nutritious.
