Let's all support each other and help one another battle those triggers we all encounter every now and then.
If you're feeling the urge to binge, purge, not eat, or any kind of other disordered eating pattern -- knowing full well that its wrong, but feeling like you just can't stop it -- come in this thread, and let us help you get through those urges.
Think of us a place were sufferers come to heal. To challenge themselves. To be challenged.
Part of the destructiveness of having an Eating Disorder is the lies and secrets. Our site encourages recovery. Recovery begins with reaching out. Reaching out means no more secrets.
Staying in the lies and deception of Anorexia, Bulimia, Emotional Eating, and Compulsive Overeating is helping to stay engrossed in the ED.
Sure, the whole world doesn't need to know -- but no one here will judge you, ever. We're all in this together, and we KNOW what you're going through.
Maybe you're here for yourself, maybe you're here to educate yourself, maybe you're here to support others... for all those people who just walk on by, who really cares? For the people who care about you... well they can't even begin to support you, to ask you what you need, to learn themselves, without knowing that you suffer.
To suffer in silence, with shame and secrets, is only to give the ED more power.
If someone who cares about you sees that you're here maybe it will help start the kind of dialogue that leads you one tiny step closer to recovery.
This thread will remain a sticky on top for as long as it needs to get the job done. To help everyone conquer they goals, overcome obstacles and put aside any negative thoughts, feelings, or poor destructive habits due to food.
If you will not challenge your disordered thinking, if you will not challenge your unhealthy choices, if you will not challenge your abusive behaviors.....then ultimately, you have joined a group...
Great idea O!! The more I read, the more I realize how rampant ED is and I am here to support, help, understand and learn.
I love this site, you and all the ladies on it!! You are all helping me reach my goals and better understand my relationship with food.
I gave in tonight. I binged. I have binge eating disorder and have been trying to control it since after my first competition season in 2008. However, it has been rather difficult for me to get a hold of myself. I felt the urge coming on and I knew we didn't have any good food at home so I acted out. I stopped at Malley's chocolate store on the way home from work. Bought a bag of chocolate sqaures and a brick of maple fudge. Ate all of the fudge. Ate the whole bag of chocolate squares.
This has been an ongoing cycle since Christmas Eve when I ate one buckeye cookie. From that point on, it has been downward spiral. I stick to my diet during the week, then blow it by bingeing on the weekends. Why do I do this? There is no excuse for it. I am stronger than this. I'm self sabotaging and it needs to stop. I don't care what others on this board think of me- what matters is to ME is that I disappoint myself. I keep failing ME from becoming the BEST ME. I keep going in circles.
What does it come down to? It comes down to taking control of MY life. NO ONE can do this but ME. Only I can change. I may keep failing but I am reminded of the quote: "I have failed over and over and over again, that is why I have succeeded." I refuse to give up and give in.
*I will overcome this.*

I feel for you, been there many times
The craving to binge can be so paralyzing sometimes...no other thoughts can enter your head when its in that zone.
Today is over and there is nothing you can do to change it...learn and move forward. You didnt fail, you just strayed off course.
YOU CAN DO THIS

Thanks Nic for the support. Ironically typing it out and getting your support makes me feel better.

You can do it and I can too! The weekend is always my stumbling block. I will get through this weekend and stay on plan! We both can
