Lately I’ve been stuck in this cycle of over indulging when I’m stressed.
And I know I should redirect myself to healthier outlets. But acting off impulse and frustration leads me down this gluttonous road.

I get this way too sometimes. Lately I’ve been dealing with my stress through music or going to the gym. Just anything positive to keep your mind off it

Thanks for your reply!
Within the past few months I’ve been really good at redirecting myself to my artwork or hiking. But lately it’s been such a struggle and I’m seeking quick fixes… I don’t know how to get back on track
It’s easy to get a quick fix. Food is right there and it’s easy. Let me knownifni can do anything to help
@Fullthrottle777
For me it’s not only food, but also drinking and self injuring and also masturbating… But yes, food too. (Typing… as I dip blueberries into peanut butter -post 12:00 am)
Yes I can completely relate. It’s hard not to turn to these things when you have so much going on. Feel free to pm me if you need to when u feel like you cant resist the food habits or whatever it may be. Here to support when I can. I work nights so I’m always around for support overnight

I’m the same way, I struggle too when I’m stressed, and I wish I could stop, maybe we can help each other here, its something I haven’t tried, but you made a difference with yourself by posting and admitting to yourself that you want change, which means you can change. You can do this. We can do this

May I ask are you binge eating?
@ranma1983
I don’t usually binge when I eat. I do binge when I drink.
My poor eating habits occur when I switch a healthy option for junk food. For example, I’ll be ready to eat an apple. But then suddenly I’m like, “ooo let’s eat a cupcake!”
I have poor impulse control. And I’m really trying to work on it.

Thank you for your reply. I’ve been trying to maintain healthy habits- especially since I KNOW I’m going to consume everything I want on Thanksgiving lol
P.s
I was super nervous to use my picture when I created my profile, but I joined this community so I can open up and stop hiding my problems so much. I also feel that it helps lessen the stigma of mental health. <3
You’re welcome glad to support you

When I feel bad and can’t sleep I go straight to porn. I feel that after I do I can sleep much easier and have less concern about everything going on around me and finally sleep.
It’s funny, I feel like I have to rationalize myself to you but I dont, yet I am, I just realize that it must be bade enough for me to rationalize and not something that should be easily recognizable by everyone else that “it is ok” which means I want to change

I’ve been struggling somewhat with the same battle. I know porn can ultimately be unhealthy, but…is masturbating alone unhealthy? I’ve been debating this with myself lately.
Because I feel that a lot of opinions depend on morale.
