    • Close Food Addiction

      I was always a chubby kid and, though my mom gave me healthy food, I developed quite a sweet tooth. In my adult years, I formed better eating and exercise habits, but now it's an obsession. I enjoy exercise but still treat it as an obligation; if I miss it for a day or more, I get really panicky and anxious. I often wake in the night and binge eat, usually strange concoctions that I make--I love cooking, but this is a twisted, unpleasant skill when it results in my compulsive binges.

      Treatments

      Physical Exercise Somewhat Helpful
      Sometimes I wonder if my excessive exercise and attitude towards it only makes me more likely to binge--I try to sabotage myself, I think.
    • Close Insomnia

      Treatments

      Counting Sheep Not Working
      Meditation Somewhat Helpful
      I still wake and wander later
      Music Not Working
      I finally get fed up and turn it off
      Reading Somewhat Helpful
      Helps me fall asleep, but I still wake in the night 3 or 4 times
