Hi Pandabear,

I'm a recovered bulimic, I used to eat mass quantities of food then throw up. It made me feel in control to eat and eat and then get rid of it quick. I wasn't really in control, but I tricked myself into feeling it.

You don't say that you're eating more food than usual, just trying to throw up and you can't. It's like I used to do only, what you're trying to get rid of keeps getting stuck. Physically and mentally.

I would talk to my therapist about what's happening next time you see her. If you can't get in this week, can you call her? I can understand how scared you are especially when you live at home and your father's a doctor. Keeping what's going on behind that closed door a secret is hard. That you feel you can talk to your T about it is great, it'll help you release what is stuck.
