    What is your eating disorder? I know my only problem is when I get stressed, I start eating aimlessly

    I am currently in recovery from Binge Eating Disorder... I've been struggling for almost 3 years now, but have been actively seeking recovery for aprox. 9 months. It's a *kitten*, but recovery is worth it, no matter how hard it is to achieve!

    only this monday I went to the doctor to get help for my eating purging laxative abuse. It has affected my relations ship with my partner he finds it really hard as to why and how could I do such things (in secret up until now.) My daughters also feels the same I'v been so honest with her about what I have done and have been doing.

    @george7527 I used to abuse laxatives too :( it's so hard to stop. I now have crohn's disease which I suspect might be connected to past bad behaviours but have no idea.
