News of Binge Eating Disorder Forum

Hello all,

I'm posting to this forum because I have always struggled with my weight, and I can vividly remember being ashamed of my stomach as early as elementary school. I have always loved to eat, a lot. I am 20 years old. The first time I "defeated" my binge eating was this fall, but I actually just replaced it. I was using cocaine, adderall, vyvanse, and marijuana regularly. After the semester ended and I ...

For the last few years I can't remember tastign food, it all really just feels a certain way, despite that I eat and eat til I want to vomit or take laxatives, after other vices were taken away. I plan on moving out in a few months and I'm terrified of just eating incesssantly, spending all my money on food, or on the other end restricting so much that I become obsessed again., I guess ...

Hey!
I have had a binge eating disorder for about 7 years, but I'm finally working hard on recovering. I was wondering if anyone has some tips on how to avoid binging on or after a party. Having the availability of food and drinks at eg birthday party is usually a trigger, especially if alcohol is involved.
Thank!

for as long as i can remember, im having this problem where i keep getting up at night and start eating things that im not fully aware of how can i stop.

Hi everyone - I'm new here. I haven't admitted my problem officially to a Dr yet but I'm on my way... When I can get an appointment of course.

Hello, I was wondering if you could help me with something. At several points of the day, I get very hungry for some reason. However, due to this, I've gained 3 pounds in 3 months. I've been trying to go on a diet, I have tried really hard to fight the urges to eat, but for some reason, I always get very hungry and start eating before I know what I'm doing. However, I've had ...

Basically ever since I have come home from college I have binged/compulsively overate every day. Having access to all these holiday foods is really triggering for me, and for some reason my mind has created this association between my family home and overeating, meaning that I automatically feel more inclined to binge just from being back in this environment. My eating habits at college were by no means perfect but way better than what I ...

This is what I try to do, it's not perfect, but I'm not left feeling very deprived and I enjoy life still but at the same time there are boundaries that keep me from just constantly eating:

My rules for myself:
Eat 3 separate meals a day. No more, no less.
Eat as much as I want/can eat in one sitting/period of time.
No snacking in between meals.
Eat whatever I want. Like, WHATEVER.
