Listen Later

Binge eating can be a very distressing and isolating struggle that people often deal with in silence. You may ask, "why am I struggling with this and others aren't?". Today, I wanted to de-mystify binge eating, to help you understand this very question. In the episode I discuss:

  • What is binge eating
  • Binge eating vs BED
  • Factors that lead to a binge
  • Using food as a coping mechanism
  • Using food to fulfil unmet needs
  • The role of diet culture
  • Physical and mental restriction
  • Look out for my next episode, where I'll focus on putting today's learning into practice, and actionable steps to help you overcome binge eating.
