It’s not the same without seeing you Kati! I kept looking at the screen for your expressions and hand gestures! Especially when the answer applies to me and I feel like your calling me out 😂🤣
Timestamps! 1:58 1. I would like to know more about the connection between (B)ED and childhood trauma, because it seems that that topic isn't talked about enough. Why do we choose to cope with food rather than anything else and is there really a connection between mother's love and our relationship with food throughout our lives? 9:36 2. Can you explain the difference(s) between a binge eating disorder and the appetite changes associated with anxiety and depression? Sometimes I skip meals due to my anxiety, either because I get stuck in my head and forget that I need food or I feel too nauseous to eat, but then it usually results in a binge eating session afterwards because I’ve essentially starved myself. I know... 30:02 3. I have a question about eating disorders, but not related to body image or calories or anything. It’s more just… disordered eating? I forget to eat a meal, and then my OCD says it’s too late for whatever meal, so then I have to wait for the next meal time. Except this happens every single day. I’m not sure if this counts as an eating disorder? It’s very confusing for me. I want to eat the right amounts per day, I just can’t for some reason... 40:24 4. How does one reduce cravings? Also, can one embark on their own treatment for binge eating, as opposed to seeking professional help? If so, where does one start? 50:14 5. What is the difference between binge eating and just over eating? I’m pretty sure I struggle with binge eating but my psychiatrist has asked me if I’m binging or just over eating and honestly I don't really know how to tell the difference. Thanks for everything you do. 53:28 6. This might not be related to this week's theme but I hope you consider answering it! I feel like I just woke up now and realized that I’ve wasted my childhood/ teenage years by not being a child or a teenager. Now, I’ve reached to the point where I don’t want to grow up and ‘time’ scares me... 1:03:47 7. Hi Kati, I struggle with binge eating. My psychiatrist has recommended a drug that is used for opioid addiction that should take away the pleasure I get from eating. What other options do I have? 1:06:20 8. What is the difference between a binge eating disorder and a food addiction? I feel like sugar is my kryptonite. Also I am picky, lactose intolerant and acidic foods aggravate an overactive bladder condition. So I feel like I can't easily avoid sugar. I suspect I have a binge eating disorder and that it... 1:09:34 9. How can I deal with the guilt that I experience after a binge? I used to purge, (I don’t anymore) and that was usually my unhealthy way of getting rid of the guilt I felt from eating too much. but now when I binge, I’m left feeling terrible and it makes me want to self-harm.
Air quotes we are all listening. Hope you two weren't being to harsh on yourselves about it. We really love and truly appreciate your hard work that goes into these videos. Thank you Kati and Sean
Thanks for addressing my question (#4). The answer was quite insightful, especially the part about us already possessing the tools but needing support and guidance to learn how to use them. 🤗
Thank you Kati! The first question really explains a lot to me as I was adopted(didn’t have a parent for almost a month) and have a lot of ED behaviors.
Thank you so much Kati for answering my question on binge eating and food addiction. And for picking the rest of the questions. They really helped me understand eating disorders more. Also sorry for my bad grammar Im sure it makes it a bit difficult to read outloud. It makes sense that binge eaters tend to have a preference in food. I guess on some level I thought binge eaters would eat almost anything and aren't very picky eaters as a result to that.
Does anyone resonate with the decision making over food? I feel like anything sugary is ok because it's been pre prepared not by me. But most savoury stuff had got to be cooked, and that involves scary decisions that might be the wrong one-so I just opt for the pre prepared sugar option instead. I have given myself diabetes because of this though, but I continue on with the sugar because I don't know how to heal of the lack of the decision making aspect. Hope this makes sense
I NEVER, EVER eat breakfast on weekdays... I already wake up early (around 5 am) and I barely have time to drive to my college classes, for me to get there on time (I start classes at 7 am). On rare ocasions I do feel crappy and hungry afterwards, but most of the time I don't even notice I am missing something. I know I've always had issues with food, but I am not sure if I would meet all the criteria to get a full diagnosis. However, I know I do have issues with food. P.S. I live in Mexico and most universities here don't have dorms, so everyone "commutes".
I think I am on the opposite side of the eating disorder spectrum as in I overeat so maybe check with a professional with my advice. But I too wake up early to commute to school. I tend to get hungry on the way like legit hungry because I get hungry every 2 hrs so I bring snacks to eat on the way. Im sure I could bring healthier snacks though. Or to eat before I get back on the road when I have to stop for gas or using the restroom. Also maybe a meal shake would be an easier option? Im not sure what sort of traffic u have to deal with either. Half my drive is a straight shot and easy but tiring.
@@scenepunk09 Thanks for the suggestions! I've tried eating on-the-go, but I tend to binge on carbs and sugary stuff (juice boxes, cookies, pastries, bread, donuts, etc.). What has worked before is trying to take food from home (milkshakes, yogurt, fruit, cereal, etc.), but I just can't do it anymore. Not only because of the scheduling, but also because, even if I prepare things in advance, I just won't eat anything. I know I am being stubborn (and annoying), so I will just end my rant here. Thanks you again for reading my comments and for your input.
@@mariajoselosanavalencia6762 Its ok your not being annoying I have that problem too on eating too many sugary foods my question was number 8. I also have the challenge of buying healthy food I probably wont wont eat but I feel like at least I have the healthy option nearby if I change my mind. If u are too tight on money though I can see why u wouldnt want to do that. And your welcome.
I got a lot out of this, like most of Kati's stuff. I wonder if any of you regular followers of hers can suggest a way I can reach someone about The Inner Child Workshop (pre-recorded version) which I purchased. Has anyone else been left hanging & not heard back (other than a "thanks, we'll be in touch soon" email from a no-reply address? I'm disappointed I can't start learning from it. (I'd say uglier things, but I'm a sarcastic people pleaser who doesn't want to rock the boat. )
Hi Debbie, Sean here... happy to help. We send out emails for the workshop immediately upon order. Please email us at: assistant (at) katimorton.com and we'll get you set up. Sorry for any inconvenience, I'm unsure why the email didn't getting through to your inbox.
Our three squares are a lie. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, a lie(messed up right). We need to eat real, from the earth abundance when we are hungry, not cause a clock says so or your job gives a "lunch" break. Feel me. Xo

The replacement video is beautiful and mesmerizing… 🤣
Kati thank you for addressing childhood trauma and ED'S.
Miss seeing you on the screen... and I am going to miss the topics...
