Hi Henry,
:~D
your post made me laugh . I think it was the "I just stuffed my face", LOL!!!!! I laugh sometimes when something hits home.
I remember one day I had had my breackfast and still felt this voracious hunger. I ate and purged and an hour later I felt it again.
I was crying wondering what it was . something My body had learned somekind of emotional physical hardwing that was not true physical hunger .
There is a differece, real huger can be felt in the gut. as i pain gurgle time to eat.
the other hunger went straight to the mouth . I do belive emotions reside in the stomach area too especially anger sadness . So rather than feed try to feel .
men i particular don't want to feel thier emotions because they tied into crying .
so instead its , I don't want to feel this. please shut me up or sooth me.
It appears as huger but its not.
sometimes my body just lights up like it has a mind of its own .
I think its tied into ADHD and impulsiveness.
I was going to mention in your other post about your plan and finding a hobby.
distraction can be a good thing pre- mid -or after a binge. especially if your worried sad or angry and thinking about eating,
I can imagine it must be very difficut to find a therapist and deal with this issue .
I think a woman T woud be a good choice if you do want to get more help.
