Part 2 (disordered members only)
--ED:anorexia, b/p type (more specifically "bulimirexia")
--Diagnosed/Self-diagnosed?: diagnosed w/ bulimia a yr and a half ago, however at the time i wasn't restricting like mad in between b/p, and i was at a higher bmi (oddly enough one that was still low enough to qualify as anorectic, though just barely at 17.2) and i was still getting my period, just ridiculously irregularly. i don't think that diagnosis would fit anymore
--Questionnaire:
"Bulimirexia"
[[Remember that bulimirexia is not an official term and should be diagnostically referred to as Anorexia -Binge/Purging type]]
[1] Is your bmi less than 17.5? yep-14.9
[2] Are you terrified of gaining weight or getting fat? yes- even just being stuck at this weight scares me
[3] Does your weight/size/shape influence how you feel about yourself? sadly so- if i didn't have the pain threshold of a 2 year old, i think i would have attacked my thighs with a butcher knife given the embarassing amount of time i spend hating myself because of them
[4] Have you missed your period for the past three months? it's about to be an entire year of saving money on tampons
[5] Do you eat more food in a binge than most people would eat in the same amount of time? yes
[6] Do you lose control during the binge episode? sometimes
[7] Have you binged and compensated (purge/lax/fast/excessive exercise) at least twice a week, every week for three months? i wish i had only b/p twice a week for the last 3 months
