Bio

To Listeners, I do not do random casual conversations. You can message me for 7cups related questions and mentoring. I reply to PMs as soon as I can.  If messaging, let me know if you are seeking peer support, mentoring, or chat support. I can also edit Forum Posts.

To Members: 

I have been honored to be a listener since June 2016.  Time boundaries and personal boundaries are important for me as I do not talk about myself or use this for support and I have limited time. I do not offer advice as that can be harmful to you. I am able to support any topic outside of sext, active suicidal ideation, or homicidal ideas. If you feel like you're in crisis (Suicidal, homicidal, self-harming), please check out this helpful resource. 

I mostly offer support in the group room as a Moderator and the forums as a Community Mentor.  I accept new members. If you are contacting me, please let me know in a few words what our conversation will be about. If you need immediate support, I recommend you browse for a listener who is online. If you have been referred to me, please send me a message and let me know you are a referral.

By the way, my favorite color is Blue. What's yours?

The Dual Struggle: Managing Binge Eating and Depressive Symptoms
Eating Disorder Support / by Remina
Last post
 January 4th
...See more Hello Eating Disorder Community. I am Remina and I wanted to share some helpful information about both Binge Eating Disorder and Depressive Episodes. If you relate with any of this, I want to tell you right away – You are NOT alone. Individuals who suffer from Binge Eating may also be suffering from depressive episodes and vice versa according to research. According to the information I read, there is a significant correlation between binge eating and depressive episodes. Binge Eating and Depressive Episodes often coexist and can influence each other in a bidirectional manner, meaning having a mutual effect on each other. Fact: While not every depressed person has a Binge Eating Disorder and not every person who binge eats has depression,  about half of the people who binge eat have a mood disorder such as depression or bipolar disorder.  Fact: Some people may binge in an attempt to numb their sad, hopeless feelings. Many individuals who binge eat and are not currently depressed have a history of depression.  Fact: it is possible to be born with genes that put you at risk for both conditions. The same genes involved in depression can play a role in eating and anxiety disorders. Fact: Depression can trigger a binge eating episode.  Someone experiencing depressive symptoms may turn to food as a way to cope with their emotions, which can lead to episodes of binge eating. Fact: Binge Eating can exacerbate Depression as the guilt and shame associated with binge eating can make the depression symptoms worse. This creates a vicious cycle. Let’s discuss some tips on how to manage having both depressive episodes whether you’re suffering from Major Depressive Disorder or you suffer from Bipolar with Binge Eating Disorder. * If you are prescribed medication, take your medication. Even if you don’t want to take your medication, make sure you take it at the same time every day. * Practice regular eating patterns where you eat at regular intervals to avoid extreme hunger as it can trigger binge eating. * Practice mindful eating, which means make sure you eat slowly and appreciate your food. This can help you recognize the sensation of fullness and avoid overeating. * It can help to know what your triggers are. Consider keeping a journal to track what triggers your urge to binge eat. This journal allows you to find healthier coping mechanisms. * A strong support system can provide you with emotional comfort and accountability so make sure you reach out to friends, family, or support groups. You can also connect with a Listener or join the support rooms. * Another suggestion is physical activity as the more active you are, it can help improve your mood and reduce your stress. This helps manage both depression and binge eating. * Remember to be kind to yourself and practice self-compassion. It is okay to have setbacks. What is important is you keep trying and do not give up on yourself. * Finally, if you find that you're struggling and nothing is working, consider seeking professional help. This can be finding a therapist who specializes in both depression and eating disorders. 7cups actually offers both text based therapy and talk therapy. Thoughtful Questions If you want to share, how long have you been struggling with your disorder? If you feel comfortable sharing, please share what you are diagnosed with. What coping mechanisms help you with either your depressive symptoms or your binge eating urges?
