A member asked:
Help please! is binging then starving still classed as bulimia, or is bulimia just binge and purge?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bulimia Nervosa: Yes, anytime there is binging followed by a feeling of excessive guilt and loss of control followed by compensating either by purging, exercising or even starvation- this is bulimia nervosa.
