TLDR: I don’t know what resources to reach out to for help. Please tell me what worked for you.
I have no idea what to do. I struggled with binging as a teen and stopped when I lost weight by accident when I developed a vape addiction. I haven’t even thought of binging or p****** or restricting in like 6 years. But now, I’ve quit vaping two years, and the weight I gained from quitting has become so noticeable to me over the past 8 months that it has caused me to relapse.
I realize I have actually never solved the disorder before, and I have no idea what to do now that I’m being triggered by my current weight. What do I do? Would a nutritionist help? Everything I find online is telling me to go to freaking food rehab or an outpatient program with other people but like what the heck, I have a job. I’m a big advocate for therapy, but what the heck can my therapist do to help? I’m big again like I was as a kid, and I’m stress eating and I can’t stop. Therapist, nutritionist, neither really sound like treatment for this type of impulsion- what has actually worked for you all in getting help??
