News of Eating Disorders

I'd been in constant state of denial that I could possibly have an eating disorder . This started in around April this year. I was always a fussy eater having a long list of foods i dislike and don't eat. But I wasn't BMI obsessed . I have always been a good BMI and never close to over weight . But it all changed in April and I got obsessed with weight loss i wanted ...

I have intrusive thoughts and images. An image keep entering my mind that I will be forced to be around people who want me to break my strict diet and won't take no for an answer.

For example, in the South, the culture includes eating a lot more. Big breakfast, big lunch, big dinner. Some old fashioned Southern women see cooking as a form of love. They show love through feeding people. It's almost spiritual. ...

i have always been afraid of eating since i was a little kid. i was afraid of food. i didn't want to eat because i was afraid of throwing up or getting food poisoning. i never ate at restaurants or if i ate at friends i avoided meat.

my thought was if i didn't eat and i had the stomach flu i would not throw up much. this is very unrealistic and stupid but it ...

I don't eat after noon. It's about control. I have no control over any aspect of my life, not my actions, not my emotions, not even my thoughts (I hear abusive voices). The voices harass me to get married, have kids, etc. I can't get away from them, even if I were able to avoid people.

Can anyone relate? Will I become anorexic?

Whenever I restrict my diet, I find it difficult to fall asleep or stay asleep.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I would usually elaborate more but I don't have enough energy at this moment.

I’m overweight, but I think I have bulimia, which has become worse this year.
I rarely eat more than one meal a day and regularly force myself to vomit or eat heavy dairy that I can’t digest (I’m lactose intolerant) because it makes me feel “full” (ie: sick). Everyone compliments me on my weight loss (a significant percentage of my body mass). Nobody takes my rapid weight loss seriously, especially my family. I grew up ...

Hello,

My name is Craig. I am a 45 year old male living in Wisconsin. I have dealt with binge eating since my early twenties. I currently see a therapist and am involved in an online eating disorder support group. I have been increasingly motivated recently to address my eating disorder recently because I am having concerns that it is affecting my brain health. I just learned of a new field called "functional neurology", which ...

Hello everyone!
I'm new to this forum, so I would like to introduce my self.
I'm coming from Slovenia and I was struggeling with anorexia for 9 years.
I know, that anorexia is a serious problem and that's why I'm not going to live my life as I did, but I want to help others, to beat it as well. I'm recovered for 3 years now, and I have a lot of experiences from that ...

Hi everyone. This is my first time on an online forum of this nature. Not sure if anyone will even comment on it but I figured it would just feel good to let it all out. I am a 25 year old female social worker. Yeah... social worker but yet I can’t get a firm grasp on how to maneuver or identify what I am going through. I’ve been purging since maybe age 17 or ...

So before I had my breakdown back in 2016 I was between *mod edit* lbs 5'11. But of muscle. Then I was given "seroquel", and boy oh boy did this make me eat, and not only eat more it slows your metabolism down, so doubly whammy. I jumped up to *mod edit* lbs of fat lazy smoker by November 2017. So in April 2018, I finally got sick and tired of being unhealthy, so I ...
