Can Cipralex Be Taken By A Person With Bulimia?

Hi,
I'm 34, 5'5, and 110 pounds. I have been struggling with bulimia for over 20 years. I now suffer from depression and my doctor wants me to go on anti-depressant, which i'm very afraid of.
I'm trying to gather information and compare the meds, thinking that it might also help me to finally overcome my eating disorder.

My doctor proposed Cipralex - but she doesn't know about the bulimia - is this something that could work for me or should I consider another anti-depressant ?
