Hi guys, firstly congeatulations to @Aleyadaisey for a year of leaving binge eating behind! What an achievement! :partying_face:
Maybe you could reveal your mindset, how you’ve done it, your journey…I’d be really interested, because I’m still struggling to have a healthy relationship with food :woman_shrugging:t4:
And I also wanted to share, that I have a call appointment on Monday to hopefully get a treatment :pray:t2:
All the years I’m trying to fight ED alone, and I can see some progress, but it’s still not 100%, if you know what I mean. And I’m in struggle. ED is still influencing my life, my everyday and some of my decissions. And I can’t figure out the way out. Therefore I decided to ask for help…
I talked about hard times and never-ending inner talks to my boyfriend and he’s indeed such an amazing partner! He managed to get me on his private health insurance and he called a doctor for me and helped me to get the Monday appointment.
I must say that it’s super wonderful to have such support, somebody who I can go to when I need, somebody I can be vulnerable with and mainly somebody who I trust as much that I could revealed my biggest insecurity to him, without fear of being judged :heart:
So I’m quite curious to talk to some specialist on Monday and get it off my chest to somebody who’ll hopefully understand. I’m looking forward to hearing any advice and I’m opened to put even more work into my recovery. All I wish for is freedom and clear mind. No distractions from ED’s silly voice, no cravings of food when I’m not hungry, not eating away my feelings or boredom.
I want to know how real life feels and how to cope with it and enjoy it’s simplicity.
I reached a peace with alcohol and I really want to do the same with food. I know I can do this!! :muscle:t3::four_leaf_clover::heart::pray:t2:

Hi, so proud of you for getting help for your ed. I currently am working with a therapist to do CBT for my thoughts/feelings involving my binge eating/among other issues, and that has helped a lot. I also focus on a balanced diet to reduce the urges to binge. OA meetings helped as well. When I first started my journey I was at an all time low, depressed about my eating, feeling like crap, and at the time had no one to turn to, and I was desperate. So I came here, hoping for a little help. After a few days of abstaining from binges it became gradually easier and easier. And thanks to all of you, I feel so much better. You all gave me so much more hope than what I thought you could and I cannot thank yall enough. And I hope you all have a great Christmas and New Years. :slight_smile:
