Desperate

I've been binge eating for the last year and a half now on and off. Recently it's been even more out of control and I feel like every time I try to get help or just talk about it, I'm shrugged off like I don't really have a problem. (although to be fair I haven't told anyone close to me all the details of my thoughts and behavior) But it's controlling my life so much. I try to be healthy and not even worry about food but most the time while I'm eating one thing I'm thinking about my next meal. It's hard for me to go grocery shopping because once I get home I want to eat everything I just bought instead of sticking with my plan to make it last a while. I just don't know how to get past this and it's feeling really hopeless, but honestly having people to talk to who understand would mean a lot

Hey,

Welcome to the forum

Have you spoken to your doctor about this? It sounds like it is greatly affecting your life. If you can speak to the people close to you also, the extra support they can give might really help. I can understand why you may not be sure about that tho.

Have you tried buying food little and often? I have started doing this and it has helped a bit. I also try to go just after I've eaten and have my ipod on while i'm there so i'm not too focused on the food.

I hope you find being here helpful. Talking with people who understand how you feel can be very comforting.

((Big Hugs)) and take care
