Anorexia and Bulimia are two forms of eating disorder problems where the person is so obsessed with the fear of gaining weight that they resort to many harmful ways of becoming thinner.
Both Anorexia and Bulimia are closely related and deal in the sense that both are two serious forms of eating disorders.
Bulimia refers to a state where the person takes the help of laxatives and/or vomiting to get rid of the excess weight, which is only in their mind.
What they fail to understand is that by doing so they are causing grave danger to their body.
People suffering from Anorexia and Bulimia also have to deal with many emotional disabilities like low self-esteem, suicidal tendencies and depression.
Most of them feel that they don't look as good as others and blame it on their weight.
It takes time to recognize that a person is suffering from anorexia and bulimia because people hide their problem due to fear of humiliation.
It would be best to seek the help of a doctor or any professional as soon as the person has been detected to suffer from these types of eating disorders.
One such treatment is called the Psychotherapy method.
Through this treatment the self-esteem and the confidence level of the patient is brought back.
It is important that the patient starts believing in their mind that resorting to excessive dieting or counting calories can harm their health greatly.
Another way out to help such patients would be to take them to a nutritionist.
As they would be able to counsel them well on the amount of nutrition that their body needs and the amount of calories which their body must get every day.
   Support groups can help such people conquer their problem.
These support groups are conducted by people who have suffered from such problem earlier.
They share their personal experiences and give patients ways of how to get rid of this problem forever.
People interacting with anorexics should be compassionate and not lose their temper.
