Turn to food as an escape

I am lonely most of the time, and I turn to food as comfort and friend. My stomach maybe getting bigger but food never turns its back on me.

I’m sorry you’re dealing with this!! It’s hard to always feel/get comfort we need!! You are not a lone🌸🌺💕💞

Do you want to chat- I will be a listening ear? Are you in U.K. or U.S.?

Im fine I'd rather chat out here.

Sorry not sure what you meant? To chat out here? When I said do u want to chat? I just meant to msg/chat on here for others on here including myself to respond chat/msg back!☺️I don’t feel comfortable personally going off this forum or w/private msg. But hope that makes sense ?i just like to keep it as a community convo/ forum I guess that seems to b best!

Same. I want to make changes and be healthy but food is always a good friend. I even know when the problem started but I still can’t get over it.

I know comfort eating can be a temporary fix. And I understand it. But you may want to try to do some other things that make you happy too.....I'm doing a little painting....it's bad and I'm a crap painter....but it is very therapeutic.....like taking pictures is too. You do have your friends here too so your not alone.....

I bought a book off Amazon. Now need to find time to read it 🤔I tried painting years ago, turned out horrible 😔 I also bought adult coloring books. I ate a big Chinese lunch today and thought of doing yoga later.
