Q. I've been binge eating for about a week now. I feel really sick and uncomfortable, yet I still do it everyday. Can anyone with experience in this matter please give me some guidance? I want to fix this before I get a really serious problem and become obese.
Thanks

A. Manage stress, if you have any.
*Much like exercising, relaxation in the body tends to relieve stress and anxiety. Forms of body relaxation include yoga, bodywork (massage therapy), breathing exercises, tai chi and aroma therapy.
Get medication.
*Antidepressants can help reduce the sad feelings and anxiety that often trigger a binge and appetite suppressants may help in reducing the frequency of binges.
Self-help.
*This can be done through buying a self-help video or book, by calling a hotline for those with eating disorders or by joining a program in which anyone with binge eating disorder can come to support and encourage others.
Exercising.
*Exercise is beneficial to almost any treatment plan as it relieves stress. For those with binge eating disorder, regular fitness can reduce binge eating episodes because stress is a common trigger for binge eating.
Hope this helps!! :))

How would someone develop a binge eating disorder or become a compulsive overeater?
Q. If one was to try, albeit it will take time, how would they develop themselves a binge eating disorder? What would they have to do to actually start it up?
How would one become a compulsive overeater?
Other than stress and such, what would need to be done?

A. Hey there, I'm afraid its very easy to develop binge eating disorder. It even takes one binge to set it off. Once someone had a few binges its easy to let the guilt get you into the cycle. You're right to say that binge eating is an emotional disorder- people are more likely to binge eat when they're feeling low than when they're feeling happy. I think low self esteem definitely contributes and is what can keep you into the habit of doing it. If you believe in yourself enough to want to get out of the cycle, you can do it. I myself struggled with binge eating and it got really out of hand, but with support and learning not to beat yourself up and love yourself you can get out of it. Binge eating starts mainly because of emotional reasons. Anyone can become a compulsive overeater unless they really dont care much for food or have never used food to deal with problems. Binge eating disorders are too easy to start up as one binge leads to another and another until you find yourself overeating all the time. Compulsive overreating is when eating becomes out of hand and you eat vast quantities of food in a short time and eat even when very full. I've been there and binge eating is horrible. If you suffer from this get support and see a counsellor. Hope I helped answer your question :)
What aspects cause binge eating or anorexia, bulemia?
Q. I know two people who binge eat only and have problems maintaining their weight. They both have virgo rising and venus conjunct pluto. One stopped the cycle by becoming annorexic but stopped being annorexic once they lost the extra weight. When they get around the other person they relaspe binge eat.
A. I would say : look at the moon.or 4h house.
feelings
venus : self image, beauty attractiveness etc.
pluto : subconscious. buried stuff.
virgo bit is about perfection and being hard on oneself. Critical.
I amnot really sure because I do not think one size fits all.
I know some who will go with nothing for 2 weeks but just a bar of chocolate a day.A lot happen to be Russian and have lots of discipline.
Others have a lot of love/hate with food. self esteem problems andall you can find under the sun with Freud and company.
Throw in body dismorphia, and let's go to childhood and lets startthe merry go round.
