Well. Hello everyone! My name is Emily and I know I have Binge Eating Disorder (BED). Binge Eating Disorder is an eating disorder where one eats a lot of food uncontrollably and suffers from feelings of horrible guilt and digust after. I have had it for sure, for atleast two years now, but probably longer. I have been through a lot with this eating disorder, but I'm trying to recover and develop a healthy mindset about eating. I am only a teenager as of right now, and I finally want to start acting like one. BED has gotten in the way of a lot of things: my social life, my school work, my family, and my happiness. I believe that there will be an ending to this though, one that I can find with help from others. On the surface, I am a HUGE health freak. I believe that my body is my temple and I should treat it with respect. Yet, when I am in a binging mode, I forget all of that. My obsession with food is never-ending.
I am a vegan. For those who don't know, a vegan is a more strict version of a vegetarian. That is, I don't eat meat, poultry, fish, eggs, and I don't drink milk. I don't like having anything to do with animal products because I believe that the way they're treated for human consumption is aweful. So when it comes to binges, they're typically limited to a certain variety of food, but are normally really big in size. In this blog, I plan on sharing my feelings about my everyday experiences and hopefully show a betterment of my progression in all areas of my life. I hope anyone out there who is reading this, who has either overcome what I'm going through or who has any helpful advice, will share it with me...
