A Resource About Bulimia Hot Line


------------------------------------------------------------------------------

     If the disorders Anorexia Nervosa (a morbid fear of obesity associated
with abnormal eating habits) and Bulimia (binge eating followed by induced
vomiting) are no longer totally mysterious situations, they are still
surrounded with misunderstanding and confusion.  Your many questions to me
indicate that.  However, help and information is now only a telephone call
away.  For information call Bulimia Anorexia Self-Help Hotline (BASH)  at
1-800-227-4785 (in Missouri 314-991-BASH) from Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM to
5:30 PM Central time and you can learn how to obtain their 8 oz information
packet about bulimia, anorexia, depression, anxiety and phobias.  For
immediate help on a personal problem, they also staff a hot line
1-800-762-3334 where trained volunteers will discuss your situation and offer
references and support.  It is a simple first step of this type that can lead
to the understanding needed to solve the problem.
