Help! I used to be anorexic and I restored my weight and everything but now I have started binge eating! Whenever I think restrictively about food I somehow end up allowing myself to binge and I also always think 'one last time' and then I binge again a few days later! I just want to get back in control. Whenever I eat unstructuredly I also binge on junk food! I am not particularly emotional and I am not doing it to numb myself. How can I stop?

I understand exactly where you were coming from since I dealt with somethign very similar. I talk here about how i got through it. I also think it would really help if you could meet with a professional to discuss this. I am not sure if you saw a professional while you were recovering from anorexia, but if you did then maybe you could reach out to them ..read more

I know medication isn't for everyone, but I went on antidepressants and almost immediately stopped binge eating. I think my depression was a huge causation when it came to bingeing because it was the only thing that made me happy (food).

I think journaling and reflecting can really help! Think about what was allowing you to succeed previously and what might have triggered the backslide you are currently experiencing. If you can get to the root of the problem, then you can identify factors in your life that can help you to improve ..read more

irungracepace: I have decided to sit for 30 minutes just now to process exactly how I am feeling at this moment. I hope that my experience will provide reliability, comfort, and guidance to those who are going through a similar struggle. (If your’e new, hi! I’m currently working towards being the best version of myself).  Two years ago, my life seemed perfect. I was genuinely happy, running well, earning good grades, having more time to draw, doing well on social media, and constantly making new friends because I was so outgoing and happy/willing to help all the time. I look at my life now, a ..read more

Iv been battling binge eating disorder most of my life. I believe it came from watching my mother and older sister diet then binge then diet again. I have a teenage daughter and im worried sick that i will pass my disorted eating habits on to her any advice?

This is definitely SO scary. I always worry about this too because I don’t want my children to have a poor relationship with food. I think it impacted me also because my mother is so obsessed with dieting/how she looks, which forced me to think about those things. I would maybe read into it and see if there is any research on it… I always just remind myself that i will never talk about food in a negative way, never used food as a reward/punishment, have an active life in a positive manner (choose fun workouts and never use them as a form of punishment for eating), be body positive, not focus c ..read more

I think the best way to stop it would be to form a new, healthier habit. Maybe go for a walk after binging, call a friend, etc. By creating a new habit, you will eventually respond to binging in a healthier manner than your current way ..read more

I encourage you to seek help for your depression first. When you seek professional support for that you can also talk to them about binge eating, and they can likely refer you to someone who can help you recover from binge eating. I think it is also crucial for you not to withdraw from all of your friends and social activities. I know it can be hard and might seem like the last thing in the world that you want to do. But it is so important not to withdraw during these times. Stay close with your friends, open up to friends you are close with, and try to stay engaged with different activities ..read more

My Binge Eating story starts 5 years ago. I was 18 and i start to gain weight cause i didn’t do any sport. I started a little “homemade” diet but after 2 weeks i wasn’t able to continue and i start to fill like i want to eat every time i was alone. After 2 years i gained more weight so i decided to start a real diet and i went to gym really often, like 5 times a week for 2h. I loose 10 kg and i was really glad of it. After all these restrictions i really start with binge eating. I used to throw up but i stopped when i start to live with my room mates and i never really restart with that. My mo ..read more
