A member asked:

I'm using speed to control my bulimia. i know i can't do this forever but i'm worried about how i'll be if i stop. i've had this disorder for 28 years?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Healthy: Discontinuing use of speed to control bulimia may result in improved well being. This is a likely outcome due to the restoration of endogenous processes aimed at natural homeostasis. Should bulimia become exacerbated with the cessation of self-administering speed, other solutions to managing bulimia may emerge. Cognitive behavioral therapy, consult primary care and eating disorder specialist.
