What Is Bulimia Nervosa?

Bulimia nervosa refers to an eating disorder characterized by episodes of overeating followed by episodes of vomiting or using laxatives to get rid of the food the person has recently eaten.

If you are bingeing on food and feel like you cannot control how many calories you eat in one sitting, and then you frantically try to rectify this “mistake” by inducing vomiting or using medication that is meant to promote bowel movement, it may mean you have bulimia nervosa.

Lack of Self-Confidence

Self-Induced Vomiting (Purging)

Self-Medicating With Pills to Lose Weight

How to Treat Bulimia Nervosa?

Even though bulimia treatment takes time, it is possible to recover – there is a variety of psychotherapy options available to individuals with this diagnosis nowadays. Here is how Wellness Recovery Center approaches bulimia nervosa treatment:

One-on-One Counseling

This therapeutic approach is arguably the most effective – you get to speak to a mental health specialist

and share your worries confidentially. The therapist you work with will apply proven medical strategies and improve your communication skills as you regain confidence and resilience.

Trauma-Sensitive Care

If your eating disorder was triggered or exacerbated after you lived through or witnessed a disturbing event,

you should talk to a therapist to address your trauma and heal from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) if necessary.

Prescription Medication

The right medication can increase the effectiveness of bulimia treatment – you will talk to a psychiatrist to

figure out what kind of prescription drug you may need to cope with physical symptoms that psychotherapy cannot help you with and resolve mental health issues such as depression and body dysmorphic disorder (BDD).

Nutritional Counseling & Meal Support

If you have been acutely focused on your bulimia, it is crucial to learn how to eat well and look at food

as a source of energy instead of the root of all evil. An experienced therapist will show you how to improve your dietary intake and overall nutritional health.

Mindfulness-Based Interventions

There is a mindfulness practice for every patient who wants to dedicate time to self-introspection

and self-reflection in order to develop psychological flexibility and be more in tune with their feelings – learn these techniques from a therapist and then incorporate them into your daily routine.
