What Causes Recurring Over Eating And Vomiting?

hiya.
For two years now I go through stages of binge eating and then throwing it up. I want to stop but I cant stop myself once I start eating. In my head I no that I can just throw it up again afterwards. Its got to the point though where i cry every time i do it, i hide in my daughters room away from the rest of the house so they dont no what I am doing. But my daughter sees me and I just tell her not to tell anyone. Is this a condition? i want to stop but all i think about is eating. its starting to rule my life!! Help!

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you have bulimia nervosa. In that case, you need antidepressant with behavioral therapy. Better to consult a psychiatrist and psychologist for proper management. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
