Do women really want help with emotional eating/binge eating?

Q. I see a lot of my women girlfriends, family, neighbors talk about emotional eating, stress eating and binge eating. There are places online where they can go to get help, or even support groups in person. Yet none of them actually want help stopping emotional eating. It seems more that they want a shoulder to cry on only. Why don't more women actually seek help with emotional eating/binge eating?

A. Eating can become an addiction to some people just like gambling and drugs, it might not be as easy as you think for people to just stop

How can i get help on having an eating disorder?
Q. i want to stop being bulimic before it gets worse, i started awhile ago but then managed to stop but things didn't stay and i started again but i don't binge eat and mainly just purge after tea- i keep purging after tea until acid stuff just comes out.

but i don't want to tell friends as none of them are that close to me anymore and my parents wouldn't understand and i don't want professional help i just want someone to help me out abit.

A. Bulimia is very difficult to recover from without professional help. Depending on your age, you might be able to get help from professionals without informing your parents. If you're underage and want professional help, you would most likely have to tell your parents.
You might also want to consider talking to a counselor, social worker or psychologist at your school.
Another idea is to find a support group for those who are going through eating disorders. These groups can be extremely helpful, and will allow you to talk with others who are in similar situations.
If you're hesitant to talk to a psychologist, you could ask your doctor for a recommendation to a nutritionist, who would be able to help you to normalize your eating patterns, and give you suggestions for foods to help you, and plans and strategies that will help you in recovery.
I also have an eating disorder and I understand how hard it is to recovery. I would really recommend talking to a doctor, psychologist and dietician to help you in your recovery. Also, in my personal experience, my parents have been much more understanding and helpful than I had ever expected them to be.
