We all diet, or atleast most of us women do. When do we consider dieting dangerous? obsessional? compulsive?
What's a "normal" dieting?
Recently I had a colonoscopy done which revealed pseudomelanosis coli which is a condition asymptomatic associated with chronic laxative abuse. Although I had spent the last 12 months "hiding" things from my doctors and specialists, I knew, after this finding, that their insight into the "issues" was going to get clearer.
What did this finding indicate? An eating disorder? The argument still remains, and here I shall share my experiences with the healthcare system and Bulimia.
In future posts I will explain how I got diagnosed, what treatment is being done, and most importantly what and how this dangerous obsession with purging developed (from my account and knowledge)
Although I am not a Physician or Psychologist I am sharing from a patient, personal standpoint.
