When a child’s emotional needs are not met and a child is repeatedly hurt and abused, this deeply and profoundly affects the child’s development. Wanting those unmet childhood needs in adulthood.

This can be where survivors search for mother and father figures. Transference issues in counseling can occur and this is normal for childhood abuse survivors.

I wanted to share mine, but my head isn't letting me. I'm sorry.

I think this is a really good thread idea though! !!

That I need to eat ,even when I’m not hungry,till stuffed,so that I won’t get distracted by thoughts of food afterwards.or vice versa ;I tell myself I should eat less in one meal,so when I get to feel like eating again soon afterwards(which actually happens so often) I won’t get much excessive food.
I think way too much about food preparation and what to eat(so as to make it as healthy and as low calorie as possible,but satisfying at the same time) which makes me end up disgusted with myself and any kind of food preparation,leaving the cooking half done and irritated with everything.

"You're not good enough for food or water, why are you even trying."

aka where my anorexia started as a teenager one night and that same thought rang through my head.

My need to eat is so instinctive, so impulsive that I don't think about it until it's too late. I am a compulsive binge eater. I don't plan where my next
"meal" is going to come from or what it looks like. I just find myself in my kitchen or the drive through without ever giving it a second thought. It seems I don't have a split second to stop the action. It just happens. And then I wake up 4 pounds heavier and absolutely hating myself. Nothing to wear and with fear to go anywhere because I've gained so much weight..... and only in a matter of days. Honestly I hate myself! Please help!! Anyone here?
