I have binge eating disorder lately I've been slightly depressed over something that happened with my mother and now my binging is out of control. I'm not even hungry and I still binge and binge

How do I stop this?? I see my therapist again Wednesday.

Yes. I binge eat constantly for a while now. Sometimes I am in the midst of shoveling food in my mouth when I realize what I am doing.

I can make myself sick doing it. I hate it, hate myself for it. For me, I don't really know why truly and I am sure that is something I will have to face in order to stop this behavior. Please bring it up with your doc if you can. This is one of those things so far that I haven't been able to talk about so far as i feel very ashamed for it.

I'm talking to my therapist about it but I haven't gotten the nerve yet to tell my Pdoc. It's embarrassing

yes I do, I have anorexia .When it gets really bad I have learned that a sign that I am going into mania or mixed. I'm too tired to fight when the depressed or I "binge" and try my hardest not to purge.currently I'm having small things at least two times a day

I do. I was diagnosed with bipolar II and ednos. My eating disorder is under control now even though I still don't eat much, not because I'm trying to lose weight but because I don't have much of an appetite. So mainly struggling with the bipolar

You read my mind. I just told my best friend that I went from a size18 to an 8 in 3months...I have no appetite since I went on seroquel-opposite side effect than most experience. Plus my dad got sick and I've been disowned by my family. I just can't eat right now.

I tend not to eat when depressed, or hypo, but I am also bad at eating enough, and healthy, when I am supposedly well. When I was most depressed, I looked anorexic. I was about 25 lbs less than I should have been. I'd say I have disordered eating rather than an eating disorder though.
