Helping Bulimia: Bulimia is an eating d/o. Bulimics are not comfortable with their body weight and self image. They feel that they are obese, despite normal weight. Avoid bingeing by eating several small healthy meals throughout the day. Seek psychotherapy to correct cognitive distortions about body image. Self induced vomiting may lead to electrolyte imbalance, causing cardiac arrhythmia and death. Monitor weight.
