From undereating to overeating

Hi :) I'm new here and trying to get a feel for how this works and some helpful tips some help.

My main issue is my weight and I feel like all my negative thoughts of myself stem from it. I'm massive in comparison to my friends and it makes me feel inferior (which is stupid, because I know weight doesn't determine your worth but in our society it kind of does...).

I went from being the thin one when I was pre teen, to ballooning when I hit puberty. Then once I started uni I formed a bit of an eating disorder and only ate 1200 cals a day. I managed to lose enough weight to lose my period (Which obviously wasn't ok). However now my outlook on food has completely changed and j just can't stop eating/bingeing. I've gained 15kg within the past two years and I feel absolutely awful. I feel so uncomfortable in my skin but I just can't stop the late bingeing. I go absolutely crazy as soon as I've finished my dinner. To the point where it hurts to breathe. This happens most, if not every, evening.

I suppose I'm lookong for all the support/tips I can get...

I am exactly the same way and its been stressful dealing with eating healthy/losing weight and not giving in to restricting/over-exercising. Just joined this forum but I would love to chat with anyone!

Best wishes :)

Hi I'm dealing with the same situation it's just I lost all of this weight with quite a struggle and hard work and now seeing it all come back is super traumatising tbh and it gives me anxiety attacks which makes me feel suicidal and all !! Don't worry I won't do anything like that I'm just really worried about my weight creeping up :(
