This may be very odd, but does anyone else feel their physical pain lowers when they binge eat? I have a lot of digestion issues (GERD, SIBO, IBS-C etc) which obviously worsen with binging, but I also have potential endometriosis, which gives me constant back and pelvic pain. The pain seems to lessen when I binge eat - I don't know if it's the fact my body focuses more on digestion? It goes from unmanageable to manageable with pain meds.
My binge eating is more linked to my ADHD and PCOS I think, but I think the reason I didn't want to attempt to stop for so long was because it helped my other pain. Now I'm trying to recover and stabilise my eating, the pain is back as bad as it used to be!! I don't regret trying to recover from the binge eating, but I forgot how prominent the other pain becomes when I eat 'normally'.
Just curious to know if anyone else has noticed this.
