Binge eating:(
This feeling of binge eating will not go away. I keep trying to not give into the feeling. I hate this problem. Want to wake up and not have it anymore.

Same! I hate it so much you just kinda want to scream, I dont even know how to stop it and i know they say be happy with your body but how can you do that you cant just change how you see yourself? I wish there was just a stright forward answer to make it go away
@Dancinggirl - I don't have a magic answer to make the feeling go away, but I wonder if maybe trying to take baby steps could help feel like there's more progress and help find other feelings to combat that one and over time make it easier to deal with / make it fade. For instance, if not binging feels impossible right now, could you each day try to delay it just a little longer and see if that starts to feel easier to ultimately avoid. I used to use this trick a lot that I called the 20 minute rule - if I had an urge to use an ED behavior, I would tell myself I could, but I had to wait 20 minutes first and spend that 20 minutes focused on something else - a distraction, a coping mechanism, or a connection with someone who supports me. Often times after that 20 minutes I still had the urge and gave in, but sometimes it felt just a tiny bit smaller and I could avoid it or try waiting another 20 minutes.

Yes, sometimes I can postpone eating too. That's a pretty handy tool.
