No, you should not: No, please do not take laxatives with your binging. Instead, please get help with your eating disorder. Your family physician can get you started -- there are also eating disorder programs including psychiatrists and psychologists who specialize in helping people with these problems. Using laxatives for purging can add to electrolyte imbalance. Not safe, so please don't.
