Can't control myself, want to compare stories?

Hey guys,

I just joined. I desperately need some advice/guidance. I have struggled with binge eating my entire life. The last few years have been so hard on me. I plan out my eating everyday, it's like an adrenaline rush or something.. I order delivery food a few times a week and eat it so fast. I also stockpile food, double eat (eat alone and then again with friends/family). I am not bulimic, I exercise ...

Binge eating, depression, anxiety...

I recently found this forum and I am quite excited to finally read about people who are similar to myself because I've felt very alone at this point in my life. I am diagnosed with anxiety and depression but my eating is also a huge problem in my life and it controls pretty much everything I do. I don't know if I would medically be diagnosed as a binge eater because I do have days ...

Hello! Getting at underlying emotions-good?

Hi everyone, pleased to meet you all, I've had an eating disorder since my early teens, most recently it has taken the form of binge eating. I had the idea that it was due to underlying depression/anxiety, I eat to try and avoid confronting issues etc.

How much do you try and get at those underlying issues? Does there come a point where thinking about them actually makes them worse? :/

16 and can't stop eating

Hello. I am 16 years old and skimpily cannot stop eating! All I can think about is food and I usually plan what I will eat tomorrow in advance. Just to illustrate how bad my problem is this is what I have eaten this week which my parents do not know I have eaten:

Tuesday - 4 packets of crisps and 3 ...

Anyone here willing to be a support buddy?

Hi,
I am new here and I think that having a support buddy would be really helpful. I am 17 years old and I have been having BED for two years, but I have been having food issues ever since I can remember. Now I got to the point where all I think about is food but I really want to lead a normal life.
If you have any advice or want to support each ...

New here, first time abt this

My history with food is a bit more complicated than I previously thought, I now recognize that for the past 2 1/2 years I've had a binge eating problem, but prior to that for 2 years I in effect starved myself eating only *EDIT* a day and exercising like crazy. I ask myself what has caused this change and dramatic weight gain of almost *EDIT*. Now I think back to when I gained a bit ...

Unbelievable

There have been times in my life where I have eaten a whole jar of peanut butter. Today I didn't just eat one 340g jar of peanut butter, but two. Now I feel sick. In fact, sick doesn't even begin to describe the feeling. I feel psychologically/emotionally disgusting and physically ill. I don't know what to do. I'm out of control and can't see much changing. I hate myself.

trying to get back to who I was

I am not really sure what happened. I always had ED issues but did not realize it. They really started to show up when I was in my first relationship that was beyond emotionally abusive. Then I was able to get my weight back down by barely eating and beating myself up for not eating even less. Now I am happily married yet my ED is still here. I have reached my top weight and ...

My Recovery Journal

Hello everybody,

I have binge eating disorder accompanied with depression; also I might have bi polar tendencies of having high and low mood swings.
Brief history:
Had anorexia age 17-18 and a half, bulimia after that, then binge eating disorder. Anorexia symptoms returned every year when I lost the weight (never enough, seeing myself too fat, feeling guilty after eating and purging). Following with binging, weigh gain and deep depression. This pattern has been my ...

avoiding people

Hi everyone :) Something I have noticed quite a bit about myself is that I try to avoid people. I do not want anyone to see how much weight I have gained and keep telling myself when I get it under control then I can socialize and be with those I care about. What do I do? I almost did not go to my good friend's father's ...
