When will it end?

[casacera]

...this time? Does anyone else crave eating food as much as I do? My own extreme anticipation before, private excitement when preparing and then my voracious (although hidden from the outside world) eating as I can't get it all in soon enough. Shooting up as it were, only it's with eating food. That's why I call mine an addiction. But I've been here before, at the beginning of new, close and very real connections of other overeaters. I still have hope and will not give up my struggle.

Thanks for your post casacera Habit change is tough so be kind to yourself! I find that self-compassion is a helpful strategy. 🙂

Yep, I'm like that as well. I don't feel comfortable viewing my own food problems as addiction, and for me i don't think that terminology would help, I view it as compulsive over-eating. I tend to find that the 1st week or two of not binging is the worst but then my brain settles down. Good luck.
