I'm a bulimic. I'm on a ton of medications for other assorted psychiatric problems. One morning, I took my handful of meds and ate breakfast. Then I purged while taking a shower. When I finished I noticed a clump of something white was caught on the drain screen, and I was worried because I hadn't eaten anything white. I picked it up, and realized it was my Wellbutrin pill. My stomach had already dissolved the blue coating that I was used to seeing. I knew that if I didn't have that pill dissolving in me, I would feel like crap tomorrow, so I rinsed it off, and swallowed it. A few hours later, I had eaten more and was feeling too full, so I had to go purge again, this time in the sink. When I finished, guess what I found caught on the drain stopper's The swollen white Wellbutrin pill. I rinsed it off, and swallowed it AGAIN. I swallowed that pill three times. That day remains the lowest point of my eating disorder.
