Bulimia is characterized by cycles of binge eating followed by purging behaviors such as vomiting, excessive exercise, or laxative use. These behaviors can lead to severe physical complications, including dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, and heart issues.

Without proper treatment, bulimia can cause gastrointestinal problems, nutritional deficiencies, and emotional distress. Early intervention and structured care are critical for long-term recovery and improved well-being.
