Hi! I am new here myself but wanted to just say that I can relate. I once went through a 42 day eating disorder program - with 3 anorexics, 24 bulemics and 3 of us "non purging over eaters". It was the hardest thing that I ever did. The program was based on a 12 step program - which is to say a spiritual program but the main takeaway was to not "eat over feelings". That is to FEEL you feelings rather than trying to stuff them down with food. Easier said than done, I know. If you can just start to discern WHAT the feelings are behind the urges - Sad, Angry, Depressed. Lonely? That might help you find another outlet for them. It certainly seems that you have had a lot of disruptive changes in your life so it is understandable that you would relapse. Just take it "one day at a time" and give yourself lots of praise for every day that you get through without a binge. Then take note of when you binge, on what, and what the feelings behind it are. That will help, I think. Yes, we can support each other! Good luck, Luck!
