I think about food constantly, I look up pics of food online, I fantasize about every upcoming meal. I recently went through a gallon of chocolate milk in 2 days.

I feel like I can't stop myself. I started a diet today and it dawned on me how big of a problem it really is when I woke up extremely depressed and wanting to cry over food.

What can I do?

I have to stop, it's out of control

Hello dear

Also, could this be a part of OCD? The obsession and all?

Hello dear Blue_Bird. I understand your issues and fights with yourself over food - any food, once we start binging we feel extremely bad and the type of food doesn't matter, it's ALL dangerous to us. I've had all of the ED's over the last 33 years. At the moment I'm going through the ''skinny'' bit, simply due to a lot of worry and stress in the last four months. I've been caring solidly for my Dad, before those four months HE was my full time caerer. I have BPD and part of that includes ED's. Binging is a very destructive thing, to have to get well by eating a little, but not to be able to continue the binge ~~ boy that's crapola!!! When I binged I would be worried that I'd be put into a psych hospital and made to eat little but often!!! I wouldn't be able to do that. You're not alone hunny. Keep coming back here and we will support you. XXXXXXXXXX
Thanks for this!
