About Bulimia help

Bulimia Help is a self-help recovery website devoted to motivate and encourage everyone with bulimia to take action and make their recovery possible.

Bulimia Help 's key to recovery is getting back to basics! We help strip away any dieting mentality and focus on listening to our own inner body intelligence to tell us when to eat, what to eat and how much to eat. You will learn about 'body awareness' and how to eat when you are hungry and stop when you are full. Yes, we understand having bulimia can make these very simple tasks seem quite impossible. We show you step by step how through 7 fully comprehensive recovery zones.

We do not try to confuse you with medical science nor do we try to search your mind for answers about where your bulimia came from. We accept it's there and focus instead on how to banish it from your life.

We are just normal people like you, who are dedicated to helping others fight bulimia.


A fresh approach

Our recovery approach is simple, fresh and energizing, it is dedicated in getting you out of the bulimia trap forever!

We not only provide a wealth of information about the dangers of bulimia and the negative effects of dieting. We show you how to take ACTION and provide tools to help you do this, after all, information is useless if you do not know what to do with it.


Our Goal

Our prime single aim is to help others help themselves recover from bulimia.


Our Commitment

We work hard to provide a recovery space for you. A place where you feel encouraged and committed to recovery. A place were you can take your time and work through your eating behaviors and issues.

Bulimia Help is about creating a relaxed and healthy relationship with food and your body. We want to help you put an end to your continual food battle and put a stop to binging and purging for good.


Why we offer self-help

  • Shame prevents people from getting help! It's true, many people are embarrassed about their food behaviors. For this reason recovery online is very beneficial.
  • Another reason is cost. Treatment can prove very costly. Some people are not in a financial situation to fork out thousands of dollars on expensive treatment centers.
  • Many people simply want to recover by themselves but just need a little helping hand to remain focused on their recovery goals. Bulimia Help online provides this.

Self-help has been proven to be very successful with many people who have managed to beat bulimia.


Recovery is possible

Remember you do have the ability to recover no matter how long you have been involved in binging and purging. Many of the physical and mental side effects associated with an eating disorder can disappear as you work towards normalizing your food behaviors and recovery.

We wish you the best of luck with your journey to health and happiness. You have already managed to accomplish a big step in the right direction by becoming involved with our recovery website; therefore you deserve credit for that! Bulimia Help is cheering you on all the way

What our members say...

"Thanks for everything you are doing. I really appreciate the help you provide and without it I wouldn't be able to continue."

Rose, Scotland 

"I could never fathom the fact that 1 in 7 college-aged females were bulimic, yet I'd never met anyone who talked about their experience and the internet had an array of depersonalised information. Nothing useful. Nothing that made you feel you weren't alone or that there was hope. Finding the forum and advice at BulimiaHelp.org was the first time I could connect with other people who were experiencing life just as I was. I logged on everyday and started to learn about the illness, but most importantly to learn that there was hope. I can credit a lot of my improvements to the community and information at this site."

Krystyn, Melbourne 

"I am truly happy to have found this site & to find so much useful information and support."

Isabel Pasadena, CA 

"I found it at a very difficult time in my life and it was the light at the end of a very dark tunnel. I wish it had existed years ago and I really credit it with turning my relapse into recovery"

Meryl Wellington, NZ 

"With the help of BulimiaHelp.org I feel 100% comfortable about accepting the fact that I have a disorder. Everything is confidential and what makes it better is you can relate to others going through the same problem. THANK YOU BULIMIAHELP.ORG FOR HELPING ME GET BACKON THE RIGHT TRACK TO A HEALTHY LIFE!"

Amanda San Diego, United States 

"I'd like to thank the BulimiaHelp website for everything it has done for me. Bulimia is truly a devastating sickness, but it has so little support. This website has really helped me understand that I'm not alone with my illness and that it IS possible to become healthy again. Thank you so much!"
