How do I stop?! Distractions?

It's like a drug addiction. I purge for a bit. I feel so much better, thinner. Then I feel bloated and gross, and I need to do it again. This would be the third time in say, 5 hours? What are some coping methods for this to ignore the urges?

Hey, @ChibiBri! purging can be addictive. I am sorry to hear that you are having a tough time. 3 times in 5 hours seems to me a concerning number. This post may answer your question. Take care of yourself heart
