I need to feel

I need to feel less crazy. I am new here; looking for support and to learn anything I can. I need to learn how to control the binge eating demon.

Hi all.

Hello and welcome! It is a long road but can be done. Coming here is a great start, everyone is very supportive and understands what you're going through. I have run the gamut of eating disorders and still deal with it from time to time, but overall my head is in a much better place.
Have you spoke with anyone you're close with about what you're going through? Or have you contacted anyone able to offer professional help?

Hi and welcome:)
Disordered eating can indeed make you feel as if you are crazy. Let me assure you that you are not and that you can recover from this. Coming here is a great first step - as Anna said, we all get it. I would recommend you either talk to your doctor about supports or hook up with a therapist to talk to them about your issues with eating. Therapy is extremely helpful and the earlier you address EDs, the "easier" they are to treat.
Good luck:)
