1 litre of icecream every night....

Options
So ive been eating a 1 litre tub of icecream almost every night for the past few weeks...

I don't know how to stop. Yes u may say "stop buying it" but it's really not that easy..the mental battle.

I feel terrible after eating it and full to the point of feeling sick (kind of wish I would vomit to get it out of me too).

But then the next day, after work, I just have to go to the shops for icecream. It's a junk food craving but lately is expressing as icecream. I can't stop. And every day I'll say I must never do that again. But I will.

I'm wondering if I should speak to a professional psychiatrist person about my general eating. Because the past few month's I haven't been able to stop eating. I'm not necessarily hungry all the time, I just want food all the time.

I dont know whats wrong with me :-(

    Can you buy a smaller tub? I'm thinking once you're home, you wouldn't go back out for more. You can have your ice cream, just try to cut down on the portion.

    By what you have said, ie, 'cannot stop' - you may want to consider professional help.

    I think you should speak with a professional. I don't know that there's anything that anyone here could say that would help. I don't know if it's psychological, physiological, or both, but this seems severe. Especially with you not lying to yourself by saying things like "I know it's not THAT bad."
