so i told my boyfriend I'm bulimic last night
i had purged and went to bed sniffling and he asked me what was wrong so i just came out and told him
i don't know whether that was a foolish thing to do or whether I'm glad i told him
im so worried about what he is going to say to me when he gets in today because he is going to want to know more than i told him last night
idk I'm just rambling cos I'm scared i guess:/

Hey, you'll often find those who care really want to know more just to try and understand and help. If you're not ready to talk Hun, you don't have to.
You took a huge step in telling him last night. That took courage so well done for that m'lovely.
You could always ask him to look at the nhs website or other websites to find out information?
It'll be ok x

yeah i guess your right:/ ill be more than happy to sit with him while he's looking it up and then he can ask me stuff i just don't want to go into major details with him especially seeing as i haven't started any therapy yet so could put me in self destruct mode, thank you luce <3

The main thing to remember is only doing what you feel comfortable in regards to talking to him about it. It's nerve wracking, but try and be confident with it...it doesn't define you!

I think Lucy's idea is a good one. It can be really tough to come out with these things. Barely anyone knows about my history of having an eating disorder so it was really brave of you to tell him. In the end I think it's better for these things to be out there rather than kept to yourself. I hope you can stop yourself from going into self destruct mode. If you feel yourself slipping then try and talk to people about it before it gets too bad. You know I'm always around.
