5 Ways to Stop Yourself from Eating When You?re not Hungry | World of Psychology
As a person with an eating disorder this article really upset me. As if talking to the food and ask it if it will love me, Will it hug me, actually works. If I could self soothe myself, deal with being alone and not feeling worthless then I would not have an eating disorder. If these tactics worked and after 2 years of therapy, I would not have an eating disorder. If these tactics worked then no one would be over weight.
Perhaps thses tactics work for those mentally strong people in the last article.
