I don’t quite know if this fits here and apologies if it doesn’t but i’m in a bad headspace rn and need to get this somewhere. I literally cannot stop if there’s food in front of me, it becoming a real problem. I’ve always been a foodie and someone with a big sweet tooth but this is just getting worse and worse. If there is food in the area i’m getting it which is leaving me feeling awful about myself and broke. I’m a first year uni student so where i am i live in catered halls which provide meals but i still usually keep snacks in my room for if i miss a meal or get hungry later due to meal times, i spent £25 yesterday on stuff to last me the next 6 weeks, today it’s all gone. I got stressed because it’s exam season and now i feel fat and in broke. Any time i go to the library or a lecture i have to go past cafes in the uni buildings and it’s like i can’t help myself buying food to eat because im bored or i wasn’t the sensory input or i just like what they’re selling and suddenly have to eat. I am trying to be healthier and happier in my body so i feel better next year in uni but im just so stuck at the moment. I do t understand when im full until im feeling nauseous, i can’t keep food around me especially not sweet foods, but i can’t even go out because i end up buying things because i can’t control myself. Any advice on how to cope with binging and trying to stop it. It should be easy because im in catered halls and dont have to make any food for myself but i still end up back in that cycle. Any advice on how to prevent binging and how to stop yourself would be so so helpful xx
