Looking to Overcome Binging to Stay Healthy

...See more I need to lose atleast 16 kilos of weight due to my physical ailments. I have high blood pressure, cholesterol, heart issues and tinnitus. I am struggling to follow any sort of diet and monitor sodium levels due to binging. My situation demands that I lose the weight immediately. I experience mood swings, sleeplessness, have anxiety issues and the binging doesn't help. The binge is inevitably followed by a crash, full of guilt and self recrimination. I need to overcome this problem but I do not know how to manage. In the last 8 days alone, I have had 4 binging sessions. I don't lose any weight because of this, and I suffer from a lack of motivation to exercise because of the binges. Any sort of support is welcome.

...See more I lost my father very early in life and my mother was emotionally absent most of my life. My mother turned to her friend and her husband for support, but that unfortunately did not work out well for me. I was subjected to chronic emotional abuse for long periods of time at home. The atmosphere at home was tyrannical and I had nowhere to go, nowhere to hide. There was constant mocking, bullying, shaming, guilt tripping, judging, talking down to me, setting off standards in my life that I could not meet and which did not have my consent. My meek cries for help to my mother fell on deaf ears. I was always off balance. I could never get any kind of emotional support or validation from my mother. It changed the course of my life and robbed me off my peace of mind. I am looking for closure so I can put it all behind me. How do I work through this? The abuse consisted of constant mocking, guilt tripping, bullying, constantly passing judgement from a pedestal, pathological exaggeration and boasting about their children who were my peers (in my house), setting standards in my life which I could not The abuse consisted of constant mocking, guilt tripping, bullying, constantly passing judgement from a pedestal, pathological exaggeration and boasting about their children who were my peers (in my house), setting standards in my life which I could not meet and without my consent, and constantly talking down to me. My mother never intervened to comfort or stop that tyranny, even as I made a meek effort to complain. Their past behaviour towards me is one of the chief causes of tension between me and my mother to this day and without my consent, and constantly talking down to me.
