Compulsive Overeating?!


Question: Compulsive Overeating!?
I am a compulsive overeater, with severe episodes of binge eating!. I eat when i am sad, happy, bored, lonely!. !. !. but not in front of other people!. I plan huge binges in advance for when nobody is home, i have food delivered in the middle of the night!. !. !. its getting out of control!. I am too ashamed and embarrassed to tell anyone, even though its kinda obvious i have some kind of problem because i need to lose a lot of weight!. As im in the UK, its not as easy to get a therapist etc, and the one time i tried to talk to my doctor about it he told me to come back in a month with some weight loss!. Yeah, really helpful!.
Please help, i am ruining my life, and im so very unhappy!. Food is my best friend and worst enemy in equal measures!. Ive done all the 'diets', all the 'just eat healthy' stuff, i now need psychological help!. Where do i turn!? Is there hope for me!? Has anyone got experience of this!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Have you thought about joining some online meetings!. Either one more specific to you, such as overeating, or maybe something more general such as an eating disorder group!. You might also want to look to see if there are more general eating disorder groups in your area, that you could attend in person!. It might be difficult to attend these meeting, especially if you think every one else there will have opposite problems, however, people with eating disorders including yourself all have the same issues, lack of good coping skills, which eating or not eating is used in place of coping with other problems!.

Best of luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
