It sounds like what I used to go through. If you feel anxiety, or like if something bad will will happen if you don't throw up, it sounds a lot like bulimia. I'm not trying to diagnose you through a computer, but it could be beneficial for you to look in to. It can be very dangerous, you deserve to be in control of your life. If you eat quite a bit more than what you usually do before you have to urge to throw up, it could be a binge eating disorder, No matter what it is that's causing this problem, know it isn't your fault, and that it's possible to change.

Eating disorders and food related issues such as this are all about having control. If you want to throw up after eating ask yourself "what do I think of my body image?" I would think you are unhappy with it, changing your view on this will be a massive challenge. As I said it is about having control, try to do other things in your life that allow you to have control but that are safe for your health. Something else that could be helpful would be to watch documentaries or videos on Youtube (try SBSK) relating to eating disorders. You can learn a lot and they can be motivating to stop.

Because throwing up is a way of trying to “get your control back†after you lost it. There’s a really bad feeling after that comes after eating a lot if you have an ED, the only way to try getting “skinny†again is throwing it up. You simply don’t want that in your body, you feel disgusted by yourself. But you shouldn’t be, It’s totally fine to eat, eat healthy and stop binge eating and purging. You’ll never get healthy if you don’t eat healthy. You’ll never have a steady nice weight if you don’t eat normally. Everyone needs to understand it

while i'm not qualified to diagnose you, i think it might be worth looking into eating disorders. wanting to throw up your food is a symptom of bullimia nervosa, which is a dangerous mental illness. something that might help you in the meantime is identifying how you feel when you want to throw up. disgusted? sad? angry? identifying those feelings is one really major step you can take to seeking out the help you need. best of luck!

Your throwing up might as well be a sign of depression.maybe because you are not feeling too well which has resulted in your loss of appetite making you to throw up.perhaps you think of uncertain and unpleasant things while eating.it can also be caused by some allergies or reaction to bad food or it could be that you are having one of the symptoms of a particular ailment.which ever way it is,being cautious and avoiding Negative thoughts while eating might help.it might also be best that you visit a doctor to help shed more light to the situation.I hope this helps.

Throwing up your food purposely may be a sign of a serious eating disorder. There are many reasons you may be feeling the urge to do this, but whatever the reason, it is very serious. If you feel like the urge to make yourself throw up is getting out of control, or it is scaring you or anyone in your personal life, I would strongly advise you to speak to someone you trust about it. It could be a parent, a therapist, a teacher... any adult in your life who you feel comfortable talking to. Also: I know you might be feeling scared, or sad, or any other range of emotions about this, but I promise you will get through it.

This tends to be an eating disorder behavior typical of bulimia, and it's called purging. Something that I was told in group therapy for eating disorders is that people who purge do it to throw up their feelings. Do you want to throw up because of another issue? What else is going on in your life? A lot of times eating disorders are used as a way to not have to feel our actual emotions, once you process those emotions it'll begin to get easier to not listen to that little eating disorder voice in your head that tells you to throw up food.

This is a common feeling for people to face, especially for people with eating disorders to face. As a member of society it is instilled in us that food is the enemy and the more you eat the worse you are. Many times people you purging (throwing up food) as a coping mechanism to deal with there emotions around food as well as a coping mechanism to deal with the regret they have around eaten the food. A lot of times if you have purged once it becomes addictive and you cannot stop it can be an instant reaction after consuming food. I suggest you reach out to a health care professional or NEDA (national eating disorders association) to help you deal with this behavior as it can ultimately be self destructive.

I am not sure but you might be anorexic. Check it out and if other symptoms match your condition, try to get help as soon as possible. Do not starve yourself. Do not throw up everything you eat.
If not, you might be dealing with stomach issues, which you might want to get tested for.
Whatever the reason may be, know that it can be fixed. Have the strength and get yourself checked. It will be just fine. You will be fit and healthy in no time.
Also, if it helps just try and focus on other things and not the food.
Stay Safe!

This depends on a lot. What’s making you feel like you should first of all? It’s possible that figuring this out can help you. It’s also possible that you may be in the beginning stages of an eating disorder. If this urge doesn’t stop or if you start acting on said urges, please do not hesitate to try to get professional help, as it can help you keep things in check so that nothing becomes dangerous to you. Eating disorders can be very dangerous and harmful, so if you feel at all at risk talk to someone. It’s better to get help as soon as you can.
