How to stop oversharing?

...See more Hello guys, I'm not officially diagnosed with ADHD but I wanted to ask does anyone have advice on how to stop oversharing?  I feel like I'm constantly talking or sharing too much, way more than the usual, it is almost as if I feel uncomfortable with silence? I get worried maybe that someone might think I'm boring so I try to fill in the silence? I'm also too honest so I find myself having to say everything in my mind (As if, if the person doesn't have X idea of me in their head then I cannot relax). I find myself trying to justify and discussing the same things over and over again to the point where people probably get tired and don't understand why I can't let go of 1 topic. Does anyone else experience this? Has anything helped you?
Bulimia and binge eating

...See more Hello All, TW. Dieting, bingeing/purging I need some help please. Allow me to give you context first, I grew up obese and would eat all the time not knowing when to stop. In high school I tried to lose weight by going on short term diets that would most often end in bingeing episodes. I’m not sure why I thought it would be smart to join the online eating community to “get inspiration” and act like I have an ED, I started following anorexics and bulimics in hopes of being like them. I then learned how to purge, I hated the narrative of losing control around food I felt it didn’t make me a “victim”. So I started forcing myself to purge, I disliked it and still do, it’s not something I enjoy doing, I would even sometimes wait 2-4hours before doing it, to specify, I don’t feel the urge to naturally do it after I binge. I want to also specify that I’m overweight, despite this I was told I had bulimia by doctors 2 years ago. This just made me feel like a fraud and made me force purge even more to prove I had it. Regardless, from this time I had planned my recovery but here I am almost 2 years later, in the exact same position of that obese girl who is unable to stop eating. I feel very frustrated I feel like all my efforts are gone. It’s been months I’ve returned to my binge eating habits and I can feel the weight pile on. I try my best to keep my meals balanced but something seems to happen at night or after dinner where I feel like I finished all the food of the day which makes me want to continue eating if that makes sense? I feel like I’m a fraud first of all to be calling myself bulimic knowing I’m putting on an act and secondly I hate how all the efforts I put it for 2 years have gone to waste as if I’m right back at square 1. If anyone has some advice or similar story to share that could help I’d appreciate it.
