Welcome Home!
Eating compulsively, binge eating disorder, bulimia, and anorexia are some of the compulsive eating behaviors that bring us together.
Binge Eating Disorder and eating compulsively result in loss of control and feelings of shame. Bulimics vomit and purge their food after a binge until they feel clean and empty. Anorexics starve to stay in control & be perfect. Body dysmorphia, restricting, eating our emotions, obsessing about what we are eating, and spending money on diets are other issues we face together.
Welcome Home! We all come together to find a solution through the 12 steps. You are not alone. You will find people who understand what it’s like and are willing to help. Together we can do what we can’t do alone.
