Ok ladies,
I am currently in law school and we have our law school prom this upcoming saturday! I am excited about going and seeing my friends all dressed up in their pretty dresses, but for some reason I am experiencing extreme anxiety about going to the event. Mostly, I am worried about whether or not I will be able to hold it together this week and not binge! It seems like I am putting all of this added pressure on myself to look good in my dress, which is causing me to stress out and want to turn to food to soothe my stress and anxiety.
I feel like a normal person would be able to use this event as motivation to eat right and diet, but for someone like me, it has become a trigger for a binge. Does anyone else experience this type of anxiety and what do you do to soothe it and beat the binge?
