I've struggled for binging for ten years now but recently things have been worse than ever before.Through a combination of depression and stress i've been binging every day since about december. It feels as if I've hit rock bottom.
Whilst I am under an eating disorder unit, i've only had one appointment with one nutritionist in 2 months. I don't feel as if I'm being supported enough and I don't know how to get more.
Almost the only thing keeping me going now is the support of my family .
Any advice that people could give me re: how to get more help would be greatly appreciated.
Becca xx

re: Binge eating - struggling to find help
Hey becca,
I just wanted to say hi. I'm afraid I don't have any advice on how to get more support. I'm currently on a waiting list for cbt and am feeling a bit lost. But I'm struggling with binge eating too and am happy to be here to chat and bounce thoughts around with.
I hope your day hasnt been too bad today.

re: Binge eating - struggling to find help
Hi there,
dont feel depressed and dont feel alone. I too have been battling food demons for over * years ranging from one extreme to other. I go months of being fine but recently had a relapse of a couple weeks daily binges. I managed to see this and drag myself back to where I want to be and you can too. Its not easy and each day is a struggle but you control your life and your future, not food. We need to eat for fuel ,so work on your depression and the binging will ease with it. I find keep a journal helps to sort through painful feelings, read all the self help books you can manage and give yourself some compassion. Its okay, nobodys perfect but you are seeking help so this is the first step. Every long sucessful journey started with that first step after all Be strong.
