A day in the life of a girl who has been bulimic for 18 years
Recently, British blogger Shannie, who has suffered from bulimia for 18 years, shared a video on YouTube in which she recreated a day in the life of a person with bulimia and talked about its devastating consequences. The girl has her own video blog, which is dedicated to various eating disorders.
The most shocking part of the story was precisely the physical evidence of the disease: teeth falling out, periodic pains and the inability to eat what you want.
Shanni, who lives with her husband Danny, believes that she was still lucky and she did not face all the "charms" of this condition, although, according to her, she was on the verge of death several times.

In the video A Day in the Life of a Bulimic, a girl in the UK begins her morning by weighing herself several times on the scale.
And then something happens that is typical for all bulimics - Shannie absorbs a huge amount of food, and throughout the day she vomits many times.
The girl shows that her lower teeth have fallen out, the hair on her head is thinning, and her whole day consists of eating, weighing and getting rid of what she has eaten.
Shanny admitted that her problems started at 13 and she never had a normal relationship with food.
The blogger said that this video does not reflect her condition at the moment, now she is much better.
Shanni wanted to draw attention to what bulimia actually does to a person, to show the dangers of eating disorders in order to support those people who really need professional help.
According to Shanny, she suffered from bulimia for 18 years, during which she got better and worse. But she is still fighting the disease.
