my heartbeat & breathing.
 

I didn't know where to put this really, but this board seemed the most appropriate...

I have bulimia & over the past few weeks my health & weight has dropped quite dramatically because of constant purging & generally not looking after myself/not eating... the thing that's getting me worried is that whenever I do eat or drink anything my heartbeat seems to rapidly speed up & thumps really hard in my chest, to the point where my chest aches. I have also found that I am getting out of breath extremely easily,, just walking up 2 steps leaves me nearly gasping.

I know I need to start looking after myself, & I am trying,, it's just been a rough couple of weeks on me... I am so scared about my body just shutting down...

would it be best for me to see a doctor or something to have a check up?

thank you for any help <3
Lucy.

Is it possible that you have a lot of anxiety around eating? this might be cuasing your heart beat to quicken an such?
