Hi, i think this is the place for me

  • Hi, my name is Isa and since i had a major depression in 1998 i start to over eating and gained a lot of weight. I don`t eat because i`m hungry, i eat to feel the sensation of something in my mouth, to calm my anxiety. Sometimes i have eated a all cokie box by myseld and really fast. I don`t care about the flavor, just the feeling and i can`t control myself. During my worst time i sleeped with a crackers package and i eated over my sleep.

    Now i`m better. I have loose alot of weight but sometimes i trow my diet to the garbage and eat 10 cokies. I have been working on that with my therapist and she says that is my way to realese my frustration, anger and anxiety. I`m not the kind of people who defend herself to agressions or to problems.

    I hope you guys can help me to find the right way and why not make some friends

    Thanks and so sorry about my english. Mi primary lenguage is spanish
