 
What are the Warning Signs?
Unlike anorexia nervosa, bulimia can be harder to recognize, and therefore this eating disorder can go undetected for decades. Many individuals with bulimia are very secretive about their behaviors, and family members may be unaware of the problem. Also, the severity of the disorder ranges from very infrequent to a constant daily preoccupation with eating and purging. Thus, the interruption in daily function may be minimal to catastrophic. Warning signs include:
- Episodes of binge eating
- Self-induced vomiting
- Use of laxatives and diuretics
- Body image disturbance
- Feelings of guilt or shame about eating
- Depression and irritability
- Withdrawal from family and friends after meals
