Hi!
I have an eating disorder. How i eat determines my mood. I think about food and being thin/fat all the time. I wish i could let this go and focus on more important things.
Some days i am filled with happy mania, other days i feel exceptionally empty and deflated - no tears, just emptiness.
The happy days are almost always triggered because of healthy/restricted eating. The sad ones can come on randomly even when eating healthy, but more commonly because of binge eating bouts.
I am here looking for help and someone/people to talk to.
I have tried mindful eating and have found that very helpful but not a bullet proof plan. Mostly because of the deep seated emotions that are intertwined with my perceptions of food, myself and my body image.
