I am 25 and have always suffered from binge eating. I compulsively over-eat much less than before, thanks to years of therapy, and I no longer purge (laxatives). But I am struggling lately. I have tried OA meetings. I spoke with a sponser tonight and was told "her support group wasn't for me." It was so disheartening to hear. I later sobbed in my boyfriends arms. All I wanted to do was to talk to somebody understands the struggles of B.E.D. I may not be currently experiencing the level of binging some have experienced, but I do suffer. I deserve to be spoken to like I, and my eating disorder, matter. I need a B.E.D friend. No judgement. Please message me. Please.

    Hi :) I know you've asked for someone who can relate to you directly but I'd like to extend my friendship just in case you need someone to talk to in general. Hope to hear from you soon!

    Same here... add me! I'm only 4 days past my latest binge but I'm hoping I make it further than last time. Last "binge free" zone was 10 days :)
