i’m not feeling so great. i think i might have a binging disorder, but i’m not sure. ever since i was a really small kid, i’ve always had issues with my weight and food. i got better and stopped caring for a few years, but i think it all eventually came back.
nowadays, i’ll have periods of time where i eat like crazy. i hate eating around others, and i always try to hide food in my room. when i’m hungry, i’ll eat so much and in such little time, and i’ll stuff myself until i feel sick. i usually feel really guilty and gross, so i try to stop eating for a while. unfortunately, it never works.
should i reach out for help? i feel like i’m just making up excuses for my gross behavior.

Hey there, I’ve had a severe eating disorder for 5 years and it started just like you said. Uncontrollable eating followed by restricting/starving, and generally feeling ashamed about food. I don’t know if it would help to reach out (it didn’t help me), but I would say it might be good to take this seriously. You’re NOT just making up excuses, this can get really bad if you’re not careful. So I think it’s great that you spotted the warning signs. For me, I didn’t realize it until it was too late. I’d say you should try to force yourself to eat normal healthy portions, remember food is there for nutrition (not as a coping tool), and if you have any weight issues try to deal by doing healthy positive stuff like running or exercise. Good luck to you :)
