Help?

I have always been fat. It's in my genetics, or something. In addition, I have always found relief in binge eating. The more I grow (now I'm 18) the more I'm concerned about this. As if it's a way of dealing with feeling lonely. I don't know.

@stuckinmyr00m - I can understand how in the moment, binge eating can relieve some of the bad feelings, but then later those feelings are still there and you don't feel good about the binge. It sounds like what would be most helpful as a starting place would be finding other ways to cope with those same feelings. What types of coping mechanisms have you tried in the past? When are times that you feel even just a little bit better?
