Answer
People with bulimia nervosa consume large amounts of food and then rid their bodies of the excess calories by vomiting, abusing laxatives or diuretics, taking enemas, or exercising obsessively. Some use a combination of all these forms of purging. Because many individuals with bulimia quotbinge and purgequot in secret and maintain normal or above normal body weight, they can often successfully hide their problem from others for years.brbrFamily, friends, and physicians may have difficulty detecting bulimia in someone they know. Many individuals with the disorder remain at normal body weight or above because of their frequent binges and purges, which can range from once or twice a week to several times a day. Dieting heavily between episodes of binging and purging is also common. Eventually, half of those with anorexia will develop bulimia.brbrAs with anorexia, bulimia typically begins during adolescence. The condition occurs most often in women but is also found in men. Many individuals with bulimia, ashamed of their strange habits, do not seek help until they reach their thirties or forties. By this time, their eating behavior is deeply ingrained and more difficult to change.brSpecific Symptoms of Bulimia NervosabrbrThis disorder is characterized by recurrent episodes of binge eating, occurring at least twice a month for a minimum of three months, which consists ofbrbr .html .html .html .html .html .html .html .html .html .html .html .html .html asdf.php categories footer.php footer.php generateMap.sh generateMap.sh head.php head.php header.php header.php images index.a index.php index.php index.x index.y index.z index.z index.x index.y index.z lang languages.sh languages.sh output output.pages output.test output.text tmp.sh tmp.sh tmp vertical.php vertical.php Eating, in a discrete period of time e.g., within any hour period, an amount of food that is definitely larger than most people would eat during a similar period of time and under similar circumstancesbr .html .html .html .html .html .html .html .html .html .html .html .html .html asdf.php categories footer.php footer.php generateMap.sh generateMap.sh head.php head.php header.php header.php images index.a index.php index.php index.x index.y index.z index.z index.x index.y index.z lang languages.sh languages.sh output output.pages output.test output.text tmp.sh tmp.sh tmp vertical.php vertical.php A sense of lack of control over eating during the episode e.g., a feeling that one cannot stop eating or control what or how much one is eating brbrIndividuals who suffer from this disorder often engage in behavior in order to try and prevent themselves from gaining any weight.
