A member asked:
If a teenager seems to be bilimic but she doesn't have a gag reflex, how could she make herself throw-up?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
She needs help: There's more to this question. If you're her friend and you suspect she is bulimic please tell an adult you trust. A lack of gag reflex wouldn't stop someone that is suffering from this illness and she'll need all the help she can get.
