Binging Disorder
I have been trying to lose weight for over a year, yet I still find myself overwhelmed with urges to eat junk food at night. I tried stocking up on healthy alternatives, abandoning the "all-or-nothing" mindset, replace emotional eating with video games, watching YouTube etc. I even eat more in the morning to avoid deprivation. Yet, I still find myself at night bringing all the junk food in the pantry along with other bad habits resurfacing, such as watching YouTube, playing video games to an unreasonable amount of time such as 6 AM. I know I am responsible for my actions and consequences, but whenever I binge, it feels like I lost my autonomy and my body is moving on its own. I don't want to associate myself with food or the person when I binge, and I always become shameful of my actions after I finish. I don't know what to do, despite everything else in life is going well for me.
If anybody could share their experience or a solution, I would be very grateful :)
