Just posting here to show engagement.

I just joined this group after being diagnosed in 2018 for BED & I joined because I found it in my time of need to see more people talk about the struggles of BED & what it’s like for them. & everyone’s BED develops differently. For me-Mine came from neglect. Didn’t get fed a lot as a kid so when I became an adult; food being readily available was like a blessing & I wanted to take it all in.

I believed for a long time that i recovered. Because I did. I got down to the smallest I’d ever been and lost 75 lbs simply by intuitively eating without even trying.. And it scared me. I was 124 at 5”4’. So I started to eat more to gain my weight back & it’s triggered my BED again. I’ve been “gardening” too. Which helps me mentally and emotionally but also makes my cravings worse. Anywho-I can control it-it’s just a mindset and shift.

Some things that have been helping me though are portioning my food, smaller and snacking also no lie- reading your guys conversations and posts about the aftermath and after-thoughts from binging and keeping it honest, is actually really good motivation😭but fr I wish all of us recovery ❤️‍🩹

What are your guys stories and how are you trying to recover? ❤️‍🩹💐sending us all love & healing & prosperity 🍀✨
