- 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.
