Feeling emotionally exhausted
Family & Caregivers / by TaylorTheLemonSlayer

...See more Hello. I would like to discuss this in regards to a loved one. He's been really struggling with lockdown mentally since it happened and between March and May, we haven't seen each other besides contacting through media. Since we met up again in May, things have gone fine but I noticed that his attitude towards things became more pessimistic. This was quite a gradual thing but it got worse in July, when he made jokes and innuendos that hurt me. During those times we were getting along fine but then we both later realised that things were going downhill. Whenever we were out in a busy area, he would complain constantly that nobody is social distancing, wearing mask, and just vents about covid stuff most of the time, and of course that increases my distress. He's done it that many times to the point when I just don't want to listen to the things he vents about anymore. There are some days when we would chat along happily about a different range of topics not covid related, and that's when I'm at my happiest. It's when he brings up covid and that's when I shut down. In other situations, he mentiones that we haven't made 'any progress' in our relationship, and at first, he didn't mention it straight out of the bat. It was mainly hinted by him discussing how we were 'torn apart' during lockdown, and I felt him becoming increasingly angry at me. At times I felt like I was his personal/ emotional covid punching bag. I sometimes feel my anxiety levels increasing whenever I spend time with him because these things will be brought up. I apologise if this post doesn't make sense. Thank you for those taking their time to read this, and I hope you are all having a wonderful day.
Feeling 'fat' during recovering

...See more Please feel free to remove this thread if this is considered triggering. During recovery, I have been feeling fatter lately. I don't like this feeling at all. Trying to loosen the obsessive food rules is proven to be hard for me. My stomach feels as though it is becoming saggier and I have stretch lines across the stomach area. This is making me feel more worthless. Is it because I have been bingeing so much? :(
Binging relapses once a week

...See more *sigh* I have been having weekly episodes of bingeing. In other days, I tend to eat fairly good but it comes to that point where I either get too hungry so I start to binge. Yesterday was fairly ok and I did a fair bit of swimming, but tonight I ate like crap. It's getting to the point where all I worry about is food. I'm getting sick and tired of this. I'm done with this. I just want it to all end...everyday it seems to be getting worse...
The worst binges you experienced?

...See more For me, it was when I was sitting my two NABs at college. I sat my first NAB and it went good. Afterwords, lunchtime came about, and ate lunch as normal. I had a sudden sweet tooth, so I went and got a tiffin. It got worse from there. [list with calories removed by Forum Mentor @RaCat] I crammed all that down my throat within a couple of hours. [calories numbers deleted by Forum Mentor @RaCat] I felt horrid. Something forced me to do it. I felt like total trash I wanted to curl up in a bathtub and drown and die. Is there any horrid binges you experienced, or was it just me?
