I've been dealing with a lot of negatives in my life due to mental illness. I struggled with bulimia and depression while I was young, and I was doing well for a little while, but in the past few years things have started to crumble again. I lost all of my friends last year because of my illness, and I live by myself now, and my only friend outside of work is my cat. So, I've been turning to food. I have a lot of impulsive behaviors, eating being a big one. I feel so lonely all the time, I feel neglected by the people in my life, and I feel like my life has no purpose. So I eat. Constantly. When I'm off work, I just eat. Even if I feel so full I could burst, I just keep eating. It happens almost every day. When I'm at work, its no problem. But i have no life outside of work, so food has taken over.
