Anorexia is an eating disorder in which you starve yourself. Bulimia is an eating disorder where you binge on food, then self-induce vomiting.

Anerexia and Bulimia are both eating disorders. Most of the time people suffer from eating disorders because of low self-esteem and/or they have a bad body image of themselves. almost 90 percent of people have a borderline eating disorder which means they have a negative body image of themselves. that means only about 10 percent of people have a healthy attitude torwards food.

Anerexia is where people eat nothing or very little. For someone to be considered anerexic you have to be at least 15 percent below the average weight for your age and height.

Bulimics are usually less noticed than anorexics because they are usually not under weight. Bulimia is when people purge (throw-up) after eating. Most people who are bulimic binge, or eat as much as they can, and then purge. Someone can eat up to 4000 or 5000 calories in a single binge which makes it easier to purge. To be considered bulimic you have to have had at least 3 binge-and-purge sessions a week for at least 3 months.

If your question is refering to both anorexia and bulimia that is where someone is anorexic but will get so hungry that they will binge on food. after the purge they will feel so guilty they will most of the time purge to get rid of the calories they just ate.
If you still have questions on this you can always search it up on google. they have many websites for information on anorexia and bulimia.

hope this helped you :]]

Bulimia is where you eat and then make yourself throw it up. After awhile the results are uncontrollable. You will eat and then keeping it down is impossible. This cause you to become anorexic. Anorexia is where you loose a large amount of weight and don't get the nutrients the body needs. At a certain point it starts playing with your mind and your mind tells you you are fat. It eventually effects your body in heart problems and liver failure and you can die from it.

Anorexia Iis when people starve themselves to a gradual death.
Bulimia is when they force themselves to throw up in order to lose weight.
Both are deadly, both escalate and snowball into a very frieghtning situation. People start innocently enough and before they know it they're damaged beyond repair.
It's a symptom opf a psychological condition called body dismorphis where people see themselves as fat in the mirror when in fact they look like skeletons.

Anerexia is when people (usually women) starve themselves. Bulimia is when they binge & purge.(stuff themselves & then throw up.) You can die from it. I just had a friend die last year. Karen Carpenter died from it. They are REALLY skinny, but when they look in the mirror, they think they're fat.

It is a serious condition that teenagers are having now days, because they worry about their appearance and what others think of them. Anorexia is when you just don't have the desire to eat and just starve yourself, and Bulimia is when you eat a lot of food and then you just regurgitate (throw up) it back up. People can get help from this disease. I hope your not suffering from one of these
