I would suggest the Coping with Emotions forum might be a good place.

The description for the Eating Disorder forum is:
For the discussion and support of folks who deal with eating issues, such as anorexia, bulimia, and overeating.

I'm not saying your problem isn't a problem, but it really isn't an 'Eating Disorder.'

Quote:
Actually I think the eating disorder forum should be for all the different eating problems and not just for members who are depriving. Many people struggle with over eating and binging so posts like that should be there I think. Most people who struggle with their weight have emotional eating challenges
There are many more eating disorders than anorexia. There is Bulimia, ED-NOS (Eating Disorder- Not Otherwise Specfiied), Binge Eating Disorder (BED), Compulsive Over Eating (COE).

Having problems with 'weight' is not necessarly an eating disorder. And emotional eating isn't either. There are diagnosis criteria in the DSM for those who think they may be suffering.
Thanks for this!
