Hi, I hope someone here can help me. I don't know if I have an eating disorder per se. I go through phases of restricting and abusing laxatives followed by days where I just cannot control what I put into my mouth. The binge urges are crazy. I'm dealing with one of those days today and all I want to do is eat non-stop. How can I break free of this vicious cycle? It is making me so so miserable :(

Hi there annieed :) Hope today was kinder to you. Ok I'll just say it...restricting, laxatives and binging is some type of eating disorder. Do you trust your GP enough to tell them? Annie once you involve your GP, only then can they help. You will need the GP's help to get off the laxatives. You will be referred to a dietician (or ask for one if it is not volunteered). The best help will come from a counsellor - ask your GP if they know of one who specializes in detrimental food behavior - ed's. Don't be scared to ask for help, you just did - here :) xoxo
