Food Addiction Support Group
An individual suffering from a food addiction disorder frequently experiences episodes of uncontrolled eating, or binging, during which they may feel frenzied or out of control. They will eat much more quickly than is normal, and continue to eat even past the point of being uncomfortably full. Binging in this way is generally followed by a period of intense guilt feelings...
What's the worst / most ridiculous thing anyone's ever said to you about your food addiction? Let's sort of purge ourselves of all the things we've been carryng around.
Here's my favorite:
"Well, maybe you could just stop eating so much."
"why don't you just eat healthier food" because money, preference, and ease aren't a factor or anything!!
oh, and
"Do you realize how much it hurts me to watch you do this to yourself?" took me a a fair amount of therapy to forgive mother dearest for that one!
I feel like this should not be such a universal experience!
