> I have now purchased the fish oil and will start tomorow. For those reading this post who also suffer from an Eating Disorder as well as depression, I have also heard of something else that may be helpful. A friend of mine is taking "no flush" Niacin for her bulimia. There have been studies that claim Niacin may decrease the impulse to binge eat. My friend has found it to help her significantly. It seems that quite often people with depression may also suffer from an ED. This may be helpful for bulimia as well as binge eating disorder. I am going to start taking the Niacin as well as the fish oil. For anyone interested, I will keep you posted to it's effect.

I'm glad you're going ahead with the fish oil, and the niacin. One caution, though. You shouldn't supplement with one B-vitamin in isolation; increasing the supply of one B-vitamin increases the demand on the body for others. Put that together with an eating disorder, and you can hurt yourself. Take a B-complex tablet (they're cheap) every time you take the niacin.
