I didn't quite believe I was an emotional eater until today. I have been dealing with some difficult stuff for a few days, courtesy of flashbacks on past trauma and a mentally ill friend. I have had about 4,000 calories today. And my binges are consistently immediately following an upset.

    You're in the right place! I'm so happy that you are getting some insight into your issues. Sometimes a label or a name or a behavior can be a powerful tool to help to heal it. I've lived with binge eating for many, many years and can proudly report that I haven't binged in about 7 years. I have had to build a lot of tools - other than food - to respond to emotions. We're here to help if you want help!
