What causes bulimia nervosa is not clear, but it may be due to a combination of family history, certain personality traits (such as perfectionism) and social values (such as admiring thinness). The risk for developing bulimia intensifies if your parent or sibling has the condition. Stressful events such as divorce or the death of a loved one can trigger bulimia in some people, mostly teenagers and young women.
Also, many young women have unhealthy attitudes toward eating and toward their bodies so they may socially allow and promote destructive behaviors like extreme dieting or binging and purging. If not properly treated, bulimia can lead to long-term health problems. Health problems caused by bulimia include electrolyte imbalances and heart problem, tooth decay, osteoporosis, dehydration and kidney problem, inflammation, swollen saliva glands, fainting, abnormal heartbeat, low body temperature, suicide risk, etc.
There are also other mental health problems, such as depression, anxiety, borderline personality disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, panic attacks and phobias. Like all eating disorders, bulimia is a complex physical and psychological condition that requires appropriate treatment. The treatment focuses on the change of behavior and deals with the deeper attitudes and feeling in order to avoid the binge-purge cycles.
The treatment may be in form of psychological counseling (such as cognitive-behavioral therapy CBT, or interpersonal therapy) or antidepressant medicine. Both are long-term treatments that may need weeks or months to work. There are also other treatments which may be helpful. Nutritional counseling may help avoid unhealthy diets. Group counseling may enhance individual therapy. Family therapy may also help family member as it teaches about the disorder and the way to help. Stress management techniques (such as exercising, writing, relaxation) may also create better self respect.

Everyone likes to group things. Language students group word as verbs, nouns and so on; collections of words are classified as phrases, or clauses, or sentences, and these again are reclassified according to their function. In the same way, botanists classify plants as algae, or fungi, or gymnosperms, etc. Zoologists classify animals as vertebrates and investigates. The vertebrates can be further classified as mammals, reptiles, birds, fish, etc.
Classification enables us to keep hold of more information and, if it is based on the right data, enables us to understand better the ideas we are studying. Chemists are no exception. The chemical classification of materials, if it is based on a good system, should enable us to understand better the many substances which exist in our word. What is to be the basis of our classification? Perhaps the most obvious one is appearance.
Materials could be classified as solid, liquid or gas with some mixed types as, for example, mud being solid/liquid material and steam a liquid/gas material. Appearance could enable us to subdivide our main classification groups a little further; the solid may be green, or black, powdery or crystalline; the liquid may be colored, oily, thick, or free flowing; the gas may be colored. However, we soon realize that many probably quite different materials have the same appearance. Both air and the deadly carbon-monoxide gas, are colorless, odorless gases, but we would not like to group them as the same thing. Many different liquids are colorless, water-like materials.
