Bulimia

Bulimia is one of the eating disorders associated with episodic attacks of overeating, followed by artificial excretion of ingested food. In cases of illness, a large amount of food and calories are ingested in a short period of time, from which a person gets rid of, causing artificial vomiting. Bulimia often begins with a diet that over time develops into a serious and difficult-to-diagnose eating disorder based on psycho-emotional dissatisfaction with oneself.

The most noticeable symptoms of bulimia are:

frequent, compulsive eating, mostly high-calorie and fat foods like cheat-meals;
artificially induced vomiting;
excessive use of diarrhea and diuretics;
fanatical interest in physical activity;
increased interest in the body appearance and weight;
low self-esteem;
distorted and markedly negative opinion of one's body;
frequent going to the bathroom after meals;
inability to control one's eating habits;
damaged teeth and gums;
swollen cheeks, salivary glands;
sore throat and mouth;
dehydration;
irregular heartbeat;
ulcers, scars or blisters on hands or fingers;
menstrual disorders or complete disappearance of menstruation;
constant diet or fasting;
possible use of alcohol or drugs.
