I've been binging since i was 16 and Im now 20. I've stopped for months at a time, but now its back & worse than ever. Has anyone stopped binging? I'm at the point where i feel like it's a dead end & this will control my life forever

Hello there,

The fact that you stopped once at a time already show that you have some incredible strength. I'm 18 now and I managed to break the habit about 1 year ago. What helped me was I started to make a list on the food I was usually binging on or that made me feel like needing more food and stopped getting close to any of those groceries. I also didn't carry a lot of money with me, so I would only buy what I need for living and not more or potential binge food. I made sure I never had a lot of food around in the house. Plus whenever I felt like binge eating I showered. The big thing is, I started to drink a lot of tea throughout the day which made the feeling go away itself basically.

I'm sure you will find the right way, best of luck
