ah yes
for those who think it is the easy way out(being bulimic), let me tell you it is NOT.
you might think it is solving your problems at first. ok. then what .. you become ADDICTED and YOU CAN'T STOP!!! SO don't start.
it is extremely hard to stop. I know from experience, and I haven't been able to control myself yet.
IT IS AN ADDICTION. YOU WILL FEEL TRAPPED-DON'T START!!!
