I eat and eat and eat and then cry.. how come?!


Question: I eat and eat and eat and then cry!.!. how come!?
it happens alot that sometimes i almost punish myself by over eating
like, i hate milk but i drank a whole glass today (at the beginning i was terrified, but i actually think it did me good after)
and at lunch once i finished a whole plate of this disgusting lasagna and i was crying after
and once during supper, i was full and i just kept eating and eating
then a few minutes later i was practically crying because i felt so disgusting and full
like my stomach was able to reject it any minute
if it helps im scared of throwing up, its my worst fear
but i seem to put that aside while im eating, and it only hits me when its too late
what should i do !?
please help me!Www@FoodAQ@Com

It sounds like anorexia to me because there is almost a fear of food!. It doesn't sound like bingeing as much as feeling guilty about what you already ate!. Either way, its is definately disordered eating of some sort and everyone is right when they say you should seek help immediately!. Call around and try to get yourself into counseling!. Let them know you want to work with someone who specializes in eating disorders!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Hello I don't know what your situation is, but I would suggest that you find someone to talk to about this, perhaps some professional counseling would be in order!.
These are not normal feelings, just so you know, but I'm sure with a little help you can work through them and be much happier!.
I wish you the best!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

What is sounds like is Binge eating, sort of food as a comfort zone and then you feel guilty, about all you have eaten!. This could develop into a full blown eating disorder, please talk to a doctor about this, the next step is bullemia!.!.!.!.A big hug to you, many of us do understand!.!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

sounds like compulsive overeating/binge eating disorder!.!.!. you should get help!.!.!. I used to have this and it really really sucks but if you get help it really makes life so much betterWww@FoodAQ@Com

I used to do the same thing, and personally categorized it as bulimia because I would eat until I would puke!.
I didn't eat to eat and then puke to get it out, I would eat so that I could puke because for some strange reason, puking made me feel ok, even though I hate puking!.
It's been quite a few years since I've done it and I've finally figured out why!. I don't know the reason why you do it, might be the same or different, but it took a lot of self discovery on my part and a huge amount of strength!.
I went to therpy, but it only helped a little!. I know this goes against everything, but what helped me was my husband sitting down and listening to me and helping me figure it out!. And I did tons of research!. I eventually came to terms with what brought on those emotions of wanting to 'punish' myself and the control issues that go with it!.
Anyways, it's a really private thing, that I don't tell many people about, and I still struggle with those thoughts sometimes, but have gained control, and I get past it!.
Get some therapy, go to someone very close to you who is willing to help you, it takes work, but you can get past it if you try!. I know you probably don't want to put in much effort, but you will be glad you did, if you do!.
If you want to compare notes, feel free to email me!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
