Experience help: :( I was doing good with not purging for more than a week (lost count, hibernation mode + silent hill). - Help.com

what is purging?

You get the burning feeling because of stomach acid probably.
Those Tums work against heartburn, they lower acidity in your stomach but I doubt it will affect your throat.
Gargle some water and then warm milk (don’t swallow milk though and don’t mix water and milk together).

Aww honey :( my only suggestion is try a warm drink, do what .eli. said and gargle water and try a warm drink, anything thats not too thick and nothing hot! Proud of you for trying to stop. Maybe try to look at this discomfort as another reason not to do it.

if your stomach doesn’t have enough in it, it will shrink… i would imagine this would mean less room for your stomach acids to stay inside your stomach, so they instead move upwards into your throat since that sphincter guarding your esophagus is likely not functioning properly right now. one thing you can do to keep your stomach from shrinking is drink tons of water, at the very least it could water down the acid that is hurting your throat…
i hope you feel better soon, stomach acids can damage your lungs too.

I think you should let this annoyance be a reminder for every time you want to upchuck delicious food and think of the starving children in Africa that would of loved to eat that beef teriyaki

now I’m hungry

Even though it’s true that loads of people would love to have food in front of them it doesn’t mean that “thinking about it” would actually make a disorder I’ve had for more than 3 years suddenly disappear.
Nice suggestion though. I’ll submit it to Hogwarts.

isn’t it sad how there will be no hogwarts

Have you seen a professional about the mental disorder or tried to cold turkey it?

I know its a mental disorder and when you look in the mirror you probably see fat and i know you know you can die and teeth will rot out from the acid in you’re stomach and breath will likely stink a lot and i know you can’t help it and probably think of all those things and get more depressed and purge again.

I blame it on TV and models and magazines

Pepto bizmol works coats the throat worked for me when i had acid in my throat from not purging

but actually throwing up the beef was probably warranted my sister who quit eating red meats years ago had something with beef in it (unknown) and threw up when she found out.

BINGO!
People with acid reflux feel this also.

*sending Glitter my warmest and sincerest hugs… :D*

im sorry glitter kitty :( I do sure hope you feel better. my best advice, warm milk because it will coat your throat and your stomach. what you are feeling is stomach acid.
