I have suffered from binge eating disorder since I was in college at the age of #, before that I was a curvy # pounds ( # foot # ). Once I started binging and I still do not remember what event, spoken word, or action by someone triggered this, but it has been relentless and this year marks my #rd year wrestling with it, food and my body.

I am so tired.

I'm so glad you posted. To prevent triggering, we remove the numbers in posts just so you know.

Binge eating is such a difficult issue to deal with because we need food to function, but then we can use it for so many things, like comfort, stress, etc.

How has it been relentless this year? Can you see any underlying issues.

I'm sure you are tired, and I'm so sorry to hear that.

Sorry !
I should have remembered from my ED clinic program that numbers upset some gals. I thought perhaps being older and suffering so long that my experiences with it might prove valuable, but maybe not, if the numbers hurt someone and binged because of my post, which of course I don't want. It has been relentless since my school days and that is a very long time, I thought I was turning a corner this year and lost some and was eating much better, but I have multiple psy diagnosis's and am triggered at the drop of a hat. I take a lot of meds, but still ............

It's okay that you didn't realize. There are more that need the same edit. I've been having wifi issues. That said, I'm glad you're here and sharing. It's not a good road to travel alone.


Share what you need to share.... it's okay if you want to share more about your eating or the causes of the struggles.

What other restrictions did I need to be mindful of ? No numbers, no calories, no weight. Anything else I need to know ? I am unique in this area, as those sorts of things never trigger me, what triggers me are direct insults, slights, snide remarks, rejection, being mocked. But everyone is different.
