I’m Sick of Constantly Overeating
Every single meal, with very few exceptions. I spent this evening gorging myself over several hours. It’s embarrassing and frustrating. I feel like I’m wasting my and my mom’s money, because I constantly have to eat. I feel like a selfish, greedy jerk. A pig who can’t control her stomach. A failure…
@jesusredeemedme2425 your not a failure honey 💖 eating disorders is an illness, it comes from something much deeper than just a bad habit. So be kind to yourself 💖 maybe a new goal is a good way to move forward, or something else you can do or chew on.
I don’t want to be me anymore :’(
@jesusredeemedme2425 hugs you tightly 💗 I know that feeling I'm so sorry sweetie 🙁 I wish there was more I could do to help you
I thought of trying gum, but I have TMJ and can’t chew gum.
@jesusredeemedme2425 how about just a pen/pencil would that help??
Also I heard if you pu t your spoon/fork/packet/plate etc. Down on the floor/table After every bite, it slows down how fast you eat, and helps digest better so you feel when your full
I’ve tried tricks like that, but they don’t help much
@jesusredeemedme2425 perhaps talking to a doctor or specialist🤔🤔 or making yourself a reward system
I’m seeing a nutritionist this coming week.
Idk how to reward myself… except with food. I have nothing to reward myself with.
What’s also discouraging me is the fact that my tummy is getting bigger, because I’m gorging every day, multiple times a day… I’m thin and lithe otherwise. I want to stay that way… I’m afraid. Always afraid. In so many areas of my life…
You're not any of those things. Also... You're not alone in this. I'm kind of at a loss with this struggle too
I understand. You are not alone.
And yes there is always hope to change that which you want to change. Not saying it’s easy as I’m in the process too of seeking an answer in this. Have you tried the eating guide resources on here? Or seeking answers from a higher power, whatever you believe in?
@jesusredeemedme2425
I understand your frustration. I often feel the same way :(
