A person with bulimia has not made a "lifestyle choice", they are actually very unwell and need help.
The reasons for developing Bulimia will differ from person to person; known causes include genetic predisposition and a combination of environmental, social and cultural factors.
Bulimia is characterised by repeated episodes of binge eating followed by compensatory behaviours. In addition, people with bulimia place an excessive emphasis on body shape or weight in their self-evaluation. This can lead to the person's sense of self-esteem and self worth being wholly defined by the way they look.
