I'm an overeater too (well kind of - it's a bit complicated, I restrict for months on end, and then binge like crazy for a few months until I'm heavier than before I started restricting)...anyway, I'm hugely overweight, so I obvioulsy do more overeating than undereating.
I don't know how heavy you are, but I tend to come on this forum and the obesity one too.
No offence to anyone on the obesity forum, but I find the focus there very much on dieting and weight loss, and not about the underlying psychological problems that drive us to do these things - which is why I come here too.
I find I can identify with a lot of the feelings people share on here, whether they restrict, purge, overeat etc...it's like a lot of the driving forces are the same, the way that we react to them is just a little bit different.
