ok, so i have a bunch of symptoms for bulimia and also anorexia, so im guessing all of the vomiting is the root of the problem. no one knows about my "eating disorder" except for me, but my best friend is really suspicious. last night i asked how to stop my bad habits and such, and i had an epiphany and vowed to change my life. hahaha. i must have done that 20 times since all of this started. but tonight it got kind of serious. really serious i guess. after i threw up tonight, i tasted a lot of blood and i coughed up a good bit of it. im really scared and i want to know what this is from and why and ahhh. i guess i need to talk to someone, but im really scared to tell my mom. she'll make me stop dancing because she thinks that it has a negative impact. i know what im doing is bad. ok. so, why am i coughing up blood? is it bad enough to have to talk to someone? how do i go about getting help...
thank you so much!

I am guessing that you are fairly young and are still in school. A great resource would be your guidance counselor. They can help you find the resources you need to get help. Right now, you really need to take care of yourself before the problem gets too out of hand. Also, you can try googling anorexia or bulimia. You could probably find support groups online. Best of luck and take care of yourself.

It could be because of your throat being deteriorated from throwing up so much. Just my guess. You should DEFINITELY see a doctor about it just in case it's something worse. I'm glad you made a vow to change your life. I used to be anorexic but I had an epiphany before my health got too bad. I am now doing much better and have regained my love for eating and living healthy. You can get better and heal as long as you keep taking care of yourself and get that checked out.

have you ever had a recent nosebleed or have you ever been coughing alot at present. this could be the reason in the back of the blood. If not, i might advise going to a doctor asap with the aid of fact it ought to be bronchitis, pneumonia, lung maximum cancers and an entire checklist of different issues. in basic terms a doctor ought to tell you for particular. bypass quickly, it sounds severe. God speed.

COUGHING UP BLOOD IS VERY SERIOUS. SO IS YOUR ANOREXIA AND BULIMIA.
I KNOW YOU WANT TO LOOK GREAT AND SLIM AS A DANCER. BUT IT IS NO GOOD IF YOU ARE PUSHING UP DAISIES.
