advice help: I am bulimic and need advice - Help.com

talk to your father or if not him someone you trut please get help and remember your FATHER loves you “i will never leave or forsake you'’ you do not need to go anywhere he is right beside you.

I think you should let him know you have beed dealing with an issue for the past four years that you would like some help with. When he goes to ask what the ‘issue’ is, tell him what it is…he’ll start the questions from there and most likely you’ll just be answering them (which will be easier for you anyway). Good luck little one…

These are the main things that bullemia can do to you.
Please don’t do this to yourself. See a counceller, see a therapist. They’ll be able to help you with this, and let you know ways to open up to your dad.
But please get help

Cass, yes you should tell your father but before you do you should pray that the Lord will prepare your father for this and that when it is time that He will grant you an open door and the wisdom and the courage to tell him “calmly” ;-) Love ya girl!

dad i have something to tell you and i need you to listen i do not want to hide this anymore i have been balemic for a long time (this is how it started ) i need help it is not as simple as just eating i know it may seem that way you are my dad i love you i need help.

I think you should tell your paapa, as well. It may be hard, near impossible, but I think he really can help you! Just go up to him, say dad, I love you, and I need to talk to you about something. I am bullemic. It is hard to talk to anyone about this, and gets harder as time goes on. The sooner, the better!
Be careful! -Sox

Its all good advice so I hope you act on it. All I’m going to say is I’ll keep you in my prayers.

I think you should tell your dad so you can go to get special treatment for this. But from my point odf veiw but when you look in the mirror do you an ugly person? Your eyes are decieving you cause,your risking everything just so you look good. Anyone that ever told you were ugly or fat is silenced and has dissapeared forever. Realy to be real with you looking by the way your looking now you are looking like a model and these people who think looking like a skeleton is cute either are trying to poison you or are severely mental,even if you are a little chunky (which by the looks of your photo which doesn’t seem to be) it still looks beautiful and having some meat on your bones doesnt make you unactractive and God made everyone his own way and what he thinks is beatufil and no one he creates on earth is ugly,only your own actions do that. Follow God’s word and you’ll be off beliema and off to a better life!

Cass, Stop casting your pearls before the swine. It is time to close this post and do as I told you. PRAY. Seek Gods advice on this. Not everyone elses.

Yes true bulimia is an illness but there is a border line where it does become sin. Jesus made it quite clear in the Bible that if we do harm to our bodies than we are doing harm to His Temple and that in itself is a sin.

So, I urge you Please seek God and stop seeking the advice of the world.
Pray that God will give you the “know how” to tell your father and pray that he will provide a way for you to do that. Now, I am holding you my end in prayer over this but I need you to hold up your end as well.

It is time to end this post and to stop this and start praying, please.
