Hi,
I am 25, and since I rembember I have been having issues with food. I have always wanted to be slimer. When I was 18 I went for the first to a psychiatrist to talk about my relationship with food. It was not anything relly extreme, however I was taking Prozac (or Fluexetine) to control my overeating due to I used to eat with no reason.
After 2 year taking those pills I gave up because I was fine, I lost weight and ate properly.
One year ago I moved to England to look for a job. Now I have really good job but during the job seeking, moving in a new country and the changes I have gained weight again.
I went to my GP, here in UK, and I have started again taking the pills but I am still struggling with food. Some days I eat, eat and eat and I do not feel full.
I have realized that that days happen when I am going to do something new that cause me streess. But really silly things as:
When I am excited about going out for dancing (I love dancing) with some friend
When I used to have boyfriend and I was waiting for his reply to my whatsapp
When I have organized a travel at the day of traveling is coming
If I have a date with guy or when I know that the guy which I like is gonna be in the same friends meeting.
When the next day I work I have to do something kind of significant
So, I do not how to cope my emotions and food in this sutuations,
Have someone to talk about with, I think it would be hepful.
For example, when I am at home I feel I want chocolate or bread and send I whatsapp to have someone to talk with about that situation in that moment.
I do not know, I am quite fed of this situation. I do not like to spend the whole day thinkin about what eating or not eating.
If someone want to have a chat about this or about other similar issues, just let me know.
Cheers!!!
