@spicedclove

hi there my name is baZ here @7cups and I am happy you are here and sharing your story. You are very brave I just mentioned my binging within these last two weeks. I'm still so appalled at what I do I've told nobody. I'd love to be a supportive friend for u here take care

My heart goes out to you. As someone who has struggled on both sides of the disordered eating spectrum I can validate the level of difficulty you describe here. I am so proud of you for seeking support on such an obviously personal issue. I would say the number one priority in diminishing emotional eating is understanding nutrition, your own personal inventory/triggers, and a willingness to alter previously held habits. I know this is wayyyy easier said than done, but I know sometimes all you need is another voice. PM me anytime. ♡

Thank you so much for your reply, it's nice to know that there are other people out there who are going through the same thing. Although I wouldn't wish this on anyone, it is comforting to know I don't have to go through it alone.

I really understand how you feel exactly. Binge eating disorder was with me since childhood. I know all these feelings. It's really overwhelming. Embarrassment, shame, guilt, constant desires to binge. Constant fear of binging.

But please try to reach deep in ur soul to sea what causes the real issue. It is never the food. We eat with our emotions. And binge eating is stuffing our emotions inside. Therapy is the best way to face ur real problems and feelings.

Can i be ur friend :) a lot of ppl here can be ur friend too. We will be honoured :D

Hi, I'd love to have a friend. And yes I know there's definitely underlying feelings that cause me to overeat, I just have to figure out what they are.

Thank you so much for the support already.

Beautiful. 😊

@spicedclove - you are absolutely not alone in this, and it's okay to be struggling. If you ever need someone to talk to, whether it's for a distraction when you want to binge or just to talk about your day / vent / whatever, you can PM me anytime. Take care

I feel the same way. It's so hard because food isn't something we can take a break from or quit.

@melsba - Agreed, and to me, that's the hardest thing about an eating disorder is that it's not one really hard decision to stop, it's a million little, really hard decisions. But it is possible, and if you ever need some extra support, you can feel free to message me. Take care, lovely.

I don't really know what to say here as I have never mentioned my binge eating problems to anyone...but take one look at me and you could tell. And I'm sure it gets talked about behind my back...I know it does. Just another chronic condition I have not really ever dealt with as I've been this way as far back as7yrs of age. I'm so very sad....

I also struggle with disordered eating. Along the way I tend to lose and regain the same ten pounds. It can become so discouraging. Message me if you ever want to talk about it.
