Both are deadly, it depends on how long a person suffers.
A person with anorexia is in a state of self-starvation and will die due to the effects of starvation.
A person with bulimia binges and purges, purging is deadly, people sometimes die on their first purge, others do it for years without dying. It's a gamble.
Personally I would say bulimia, though I am NOT dismissing the dangers of anorexia, they both lead to death, but from my experience, bulimia is more dangerous.
