from what I know they both kill. The biggest trigger for eating disorder is depression it affects u it makes u not want to eat. In high school I was depressed deeply it caused me not to want to eat food tasted horrible to me I claimed I was full from eating half a sandwhich it got really bad before it got better my family was worried about me I was so skinny it was me who got myself to snap out of it I forced myself to eat because I knew I didn't look well and I wasn't well I had alot of things in my life fall apart so eating just wasn't something I was motivated to do it took me about a year to get back to normal I had a strong will power cuz I didn't want to die even though I was miserable I wanted to not look sick. I haven't gone that way since I'm still under weight for my height ,but my frame I think I'm a good size 115 I've stayed that weight for a long time.

I think depression is really scary...
As in, it really kills, u feel all sad and will have no appetite to eat...
I haven been through it..But i have seen people suffering from depression and its really a sad case...
Im glad u overcome the depression thingy...
But hearing what u have been through, its really argh...
saddening...
but its good that u are back to the normal u...
i hope all those who are going through depression will overcome ti... =)

sad to say, i know someone who is bulimic. everytime she finishes a meal, she directly goes to the bathroom to make herself gag till she vomits what she has just eaten. we are telling her that she should stop it because doing so would irritate her intestines but she just wont listen.

i guess ur friend needs lotsa support from her friends and family...
problems leading to these diseases are mostly weight issues...
assure her that she looks fine...
and if she really is obese...
start exercising with her...
guide her to the correct way to lose weight...

Oh bullimia can deffinatly kill you. Infact, in some ways it's worse. You are pushin up acid through your esophagus. And it is deffinalty possible to have a heart attack.
