Bulimia Help

Just a question, do you think an ED, especially bulimia, can make you feel extremely insecure, even academically or professionally? I know, it might sound random, but that is what's happening to me. I used to be really good academically, but right now I really don't know what's happening. What's a good thing that I could keep in mind to feel a bit better and more confident when I'm studying..?
Thanks to all! xx have a good day

Hey,
I had a really bad relapse today, binged twice in one afternoon :( It always happens, when I'm tired I binge, 90% chances. The problem is that I can't and I hate sleeping during the day. Which makes this quite complicated :/
Has anyone of you got some ideas on how to manage tiredness? you'd help out incredibly.
Thank you very much!
Have a great day everyone

Last summer I went away for 3 weeks with my family. With stayed at a resort, so I did not have "free access" to food, so I didn't binge for the entire holiday. I also lost a little weight and I felt better about myself, probably more for the regaing control, rather than for the weight gain.
The problem is that my mum told me that I looked skinnier and that I looked better.
Now, I love my mum very much, but that comment, which at first made me feel really good about myself, now that I'm back home, and unfortunately back on bingeing, is terrifying me.
Now she's telling me that I'll look the same anyway, but what about that comment?
I'm feeling extremely scared, I thought I had recovered..but obviously recovery will not happen all of a sudden.
Has anyone got something a bit reassuring to say? I don't want to be seen as "ugly" by family. I don't want to disgust them.

p.s.: I live close to Milan, and therefore I feel like being thin is a standard requirement here :(
