As someone who's been binge free for half a year now this hits, such a horrible ed to have, no one understands how hard it was to stop. Thank you for sharing ❤
binge eating makes me feel like a monster and so alone like I'm the only one who would ever binge to the extreme extent to indulge and harm myself till I'm immobile. I'm so ready to beat it and say bye to it forever. tysm for this video :)
I really needed this for the pass 6 years I been on off restriction and binge I’ll lose 20 lb gain 30 and continue for years this year really spent me into a spiral where I can’t stop binging I literally had no self control anymore as I had to much restriction further on, my environment was full of people convincing me to eat more and yet when I tried healthy options I was always shut down by myself and people asking if I was anorexic in turn I binge more as a way to prove to myself I wouldn’t go back to that old self ; I realize I cant make any more excuses anymore I’m not going to let people affect me even if they are friends and family I need to stop this self destructive habit , I thank you Mae for inspiring me and hope my journey starting today works well for me! As this video gave me a new opening on how to handle my food addiction I’ll update when I can for progress I know this is lowkey over sharing but it feels like people in this channel really do understand the struggle .
Thanks for making this. My story is like... I used food as a clutch to deal with my rumination. I was really hopeless by the state of society and our world, and I felt hopeless because I failed at so many of my dreams, and in my life I feel like i'm so far behind and stunted in emotional growth & maturity. I feel like I let every single little thing get to me because of my addictive personality & my overly caring nature. I end up becoming a person where I care about every single little thing and it hurts so bad that I don't know how to comfort myself or be okay with the feeling. So far the only thing that's really helped me is meditation. I'm going to pair your advice with the idea of meditation. Instead of binging, i'll go meditate or take a walk to calm down. I think what I need to do is ground myself in reality, because sometimes my thoughts make my world feel overly bleak, anxiety-inducing, stressful or hard. I think I am coping all the time because life always feels hard to me. It feels like life is the hardest thing ever, and I just can't accept it. I just can't cope with it. So food helps life feel a little easier for me. I think what I need is healthier coping methods, and a bit of mental reframing of how I see my life. Because food is like comfort to me, I taste it and I genuinely feel my sadness wash away as I eat.
This video feels like it was made just for me. I've been struggling with binge eating, bulimia, and body dysmorphia for so long, it's exhausting. Cycles of intense restriction only to binge uncontrollably. I've never had a healthy relationship with food, but I want to change. This video is the sign I needed to start new habits to make that change. Thank you!
Sometimes I just want something to occupy my tastebuds, and sparkling water has been so clutch! It curbs random sugar based cravings without diminishing my true hunger cues (like some meds do).
I absolutely love this! Last weekend I had one of the worst sugar binges I've had for a while so I've decided to cut out highly processed/added sugars and focus more on natural ones for the rest of my life. Ofc occasionally I may allow something that isn't part of my whole foods diet but I realised that I ALWAYS struggle to eat these things in moderation if I have easy access to them at home. I love that you mention nutrition as well because now i'm doing my best to have self awareness before taking action and I first will ask myself "will this nourish me?" before I buy/ eat certain foods. It really helps to simplify living a healthier, whole foods lifestyle. Plus taking the emotion out of food helps a lot! It's good to remember what food is = its just that, only food! Thank you for your content, I'm a long time follower now and I always look forward to watching your videos, they're very informative yet realistic too. I appreciate the help!! 😊❤
The way u posted this at the RIGHT moment like it's literally a sign for me atp,I'm literally so tired,I am so done with myself and everything,I just wanna heal and feel my best.
these videos mean everything to me, honestly. ive struggled with binge ed for my whole life and ive been struggling with somehow binge ed and ana for the past 2 years, and both of these disorders have ruined my mental health and are taking a toll on me physically as well but not as severely. having binge ed literally makes me hopelessly depressed, and these videos discussing it and giving me hope that i can recover from it and lose weight safely, genuinely gives me so much hope for myself. thank you ❤
to my chocolate lovers, try switching to dark chocolate!! Yes, to some it may be nasty at first but trust me, you get used to it. I would start by choosing a 50% dark chocolate and then scaling up to a 70-90% progressively. The less sugar in it the better. I have about an ounce a day (roughly a square or two) and it satisfies my chocolate cravings for the day without the downsides of it. I would be wary of the lead levels in dark chocolate however, so if anyone is sensitive to that id be careful.
12:40 Exactly, I was reading a book called dopamine detox yesterday and it mentioned this (I also experienced it too); when one consumes something that spikes dopamine, they want it MORE. In fact, they require more of the same stimulus to get the equivalent amount of dopamine that they desired
YES! Thank you for this video! I’ve been binge eating for years and love your videos and really wanted you to do a video on this since I know you struggled with it too. Thank you
Learning the science behind everything when I took a couple anatomy courses and nutrition courses really helped as well because I was able to regulate and understand how my body‘s prime response worked basically what I learned in class is that people with binge eating disorder activate their parasympathetic nervous system, which allows for a rest and digest state and causes the stomach muscles to constrict and move around when you eat, which pleasures the brain centers which is really bad because then you can become addicted to their own chemicals that your body releases when you eat and foods such as sugar and carbs hit that pleasure center immediately so something I recommend doing is just making sure that you have balanced meals throughout the day don’t restrict and just try to make sure that you get protein in so that your stomach doesn’t constrict and produce more gastric juices which stimulate hunger however, for the emotional side of things, I just recommend opening up to someone that you really really trust and just let them know like how you’re feeling and it should help because then it’ll instill that you’re not alone and that you have a support system
I just imagined my monster when I binge and it was a terrifying inner view, so bad I couldn't even post it here. I imagined this darkness to get out of me and projected then some peace to this little me.
This advice is so insightful and helpful, I can come to terms with how I feel about food now and I am looking forward to implement some of the points you mentioned that can mitigate food cravings, I am already feeling soo much better even after only watching the video! Pleease keep making such helpful and useful content!! Also I think it would be useful to a lot of people if you covered phone addictions associated with procrastination?
The universe really got my back! I was crying after exercising cus my relationship w food is so bad n it makes me feel so hopeless. I found the rott of the issues, why i always eat when i am not hungry is because i want to feel good, to distract myself etc. Emotional eating is my issues. I hope next year i can have a better relationship w food n im going to make it. Thank u for this video Mae. N future me, please update how it went❤
I'm addicted to starving, restricting and over-exercising. Having no energy to feel emotion as i am quite an emotional person but growing up i was told to hide those emotions and my family never talked about emotions/feelings, so growing up i kept everything inside and so every now and then it becomes too much and all i want to do is feel nothing. So i restrict to numb myself from any emotion. However, its so miserable and isolating, i've become a shell of myself afraid to live. I default to negativity and self-doubt. I also think it has something to do with being seen meaning as a kid the only time i got attention/care/love was when i was sick .... anyway i can't carry on like this anymore my entire life resolves around food, restriction, calories etc etc. I lost all my friends and quit all my hobbies, its just sad.
I will say that I had a binge disorder with Starbucks and I think it’s mostly because if I don’t have it I’m afraid they’ll say “we’re out of it for a week, we discontinued it” because I have that that happen before so I get nervous and go binge on their drinks or their cookies or bakery items. It’s bad. I need to stop.
i have no happiness, frnds or anyone to even talk to so i have always been frnds wid food not knowing its the real enemy y i can't live fully confidently ,i was 91 kg now i am 77 still hustling but to overcome emotional eatingwas way more harder to jog 1 hour or do zumba for 1 hour i healed myself and overcame all past traumas relaised food was the coping mechanism i used to numb pain watched many yt videos but nothing helped all they say is do mindful eating where i hate taste of eating healthy but i started changing habits
oh I don't think I have an addictive personality, I KNOW I do. I finally got clean from heroin after 13 years. first time I got clean since I started. been clean for 2 years on december 20th!
Here is a question for you. Me being a higher-level character, how do you muster the will power to overcome not only the ED but a lot of the physical disabilities that come with it? I loth the way I look.
But what if I'm constantly surrounded by the foods that trigger me and can't change it (for example, it's my work envoirnment)? Can you actually do that WITHOUT giving up your trigger foods?
Girl you changed my life! I already know I’m a type of healthier now. I used to eat so much junk food, but because of you I nipped some of my cravings and I eat blueberries when I wanna simply chew on something. Seriously for anyone struggling I wanna say after a month and some change of eating healthier and cutting out the junk, my body doesn’t know how to crave certain sweets and junk anymore. (Btw I’m a pøthead so yeah not everyday is easy but I care for my body and the hobbies I have that require a healthy, strong body so much that it’s absolutely worth making these changes.) and for the days I let myself have a lil something special, I value it more because I don’t have it regularly anymore. & it often reminds me why I don’t eat it so often. Maybe kid me what I thought it’s it be cool to be made out of just milk bars because there’s so yummy, but I really do take so much pride being able to say I’m made of blueberries, spinach, moderation of naked juices and water and things that are actually good for my body. 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
