hi there!! i am so beyond sorry that you struggled with binge eating and stress today. what i have to reccomend is doing the next best thing. What this means is, don't overexcersize, don't restrict, get right back on the horse. do not skip any meals afterwards either, (i know this may be difficult due to being full, but you can always reduce the size of the remaining meals by a little bit), in order to not binge again later. 

for mentally coping, i love listening to music. i love to pick an uplifting playlist that reminds me that it is okay to slip up, and gives me motivation and comfort.

i know how the pain of being over-ull is, so i don't reccomend working out or trying to "compensate" for binge eating.  this could make you get physcially sick, and would likely lead to binges later in the day.

i also tend to love journaling my feelings to try to figure out the why behind a binge, because this can help let you feel the emotions that your binge was trying to supress from you.

lastly, taking a bath or a shower is very helpful for me. it helps me feel clean and refreshed, almost like a sensory reset. 

please feel free to message me if you would like any clarification or any support on this issue regarding binges. i am unfortunately very familiar with this situation, and i am so sorry you went through this today. i know how uncomfortable you must feel. there is always tommrow. you need to be gentle with yourself, because sometimes, this happens and we can't control it. with time, there will be a day you can feel these emotions, and cope in a healthy way <3 i believe in you, and i am sending you so many hugs <3

Hey! Your situation is so understandable, I have a tip that really helped me. First of all, the day after a binge, try not to feel guilty about it and go on with your day how you would normally eat. Don’t feel like you need to stop eating to make up for that binge because trust me it will turn into an ongoing cycle that will get worse overtime.+ drink lots of water!!💗

@helloooooooooooooooooooooooooo You should focus on gentle movement like walking instead of intense workouts; it helps digestion and improves mood without stressing your body further.
