..to lightheardly ask what shameful thing you need to admit to?

[RoyEastmannKodak]

When no one is around to see me, and when the food was really yummy, I lick the plate clean. Regularly.

I am a 47 year old educated and professional woman. I don't think people would ever expect this of me. I caught sight of my reflection when doing this earlier and I looked like a hungry stray dog

What do you do that people don't know about?

To caveat this, I have suffered with bulimia for years and have been in therapy for it!

I bought a gorgeous slab of red velvet cake during a binge episode but didn’t eat it. I put it (in its box) in the bin to remove the temptation.

Well, the next day came and I took the box out the bin and ate the cake 😳😬

The only defence is that it was on the top and nothing gross had touched the box 🙈

I'm a little bit shocked that so many people pee in their gardens!!

Do you just, like, nip outside and squat on the lawn or shrubbery?

Why???

@amusedbush

That is something I have done many a time when suffering with bulimia.

@PH30B3 yeah me too.

Problem is, the work loo doesn't have the best flush.

I can't bring myself to go into the lengths this has led me to go to to deal with the situation when it occurs. I assume I can't be the only one at work with this problem. We are probably all at it

I've eaten things out of the bin. (at home) and I don't have bulimia. I'm just a greedy bitch. That's far more shameful

I eat raw potatoes and, on occasion, raw Richmond sausages.

When I was on a works trip to LA I met a very young wannabe actor who looked exactly like Keanu Reeves circa Speed in a club. I was horny as hell and wanted to shag him senseless. We went to his house (Rented pool house in zip 90210 😋) and I realised I was on the last day of my period - still cringe at the thought - as the poolhouse was a studio I went outside took out my tampon and launched it. I have no idea where it landed or what condition it was in but I have visions of it being found the next day floating in the neighbours pool. Oh the shame.
It was also a crap shag but oh my god the abs.... sigh

@TriangleBingoBongo

I was trying to keep my tone lighthearted but bulimia has seen me behave like a drug addict at times. Standing on chairs desperately looking for chocolate hidden on top of the kitchen units, or gathering up loose change to buy junk food the day before payday

Eating cake from the bin was definitely a low point though 🙈

@Yabadee we need a photo!

The other day I asked a work friend to get me a mars bar from the shop, then changed my mind and asked for a Duo Mars bar, usually around 80p. She made the decision to spend the full £1 I sent her with and bought me a 4x pack of Mars bars.

I sat and ate them all one after another. I do things like this regularly.

I talk to myself out loud ALL the time, if the family are at home I'll chat in my head and then accidentally say random words out loud so I then have to just ramble shite or turn it into a song.

I also found as a student the last 3 years I need really loud rock music on to help me concentrate or my brain just goes blank.

I'm hopefully returning to work soon after 6 years at home, I'm not sure how the fuck I'll cope.

Sometimes I eat several packets of crisps in one go followed by multiple chocolate biscuits/twix/ breakaways or whatever we have. I shovel them in so fast I can hardly taste them and I don’t stop until I feel disgusting and bloated. I can’t stop myself

@Baluga I do the same! I’ve a constant conversation in my head but when I’m by myself (or just have the 2 y.o) it’s all out loud 🙈 I’m not sure who I’m even speaking to but I pause for their answers... if they take too long I answer for them, “oh I’m sure you’re not after a cup of tea just now, maybe later”.

Send help

@mynameisntlouise - Mars Bars dipped in a latte or hot tea till a bit melty. Gorgeous.

@SabineUndine 😍😍😍

I save my morning poo to do at work on work time. I get very few perks

I have been known to talk to myself. Not mad, just get bored when home alone.

I pick my nose all the time & either roll it & flick it or wipe it on the nearest piece of furniture.

I can't blow my nose either so I have a morning dig after I brush my teeth.

Talking of farts I let the loudest one go and my poor two year old jumped up and said "on no mummy fireworks" while pointing at the window.

I’m with you @Baluga I can’t bear peas, sweet corn or other small veg to be left alone in a pan when I’m serving up in case any one of them feels left out!

I have messaged my (teenage) children to refill my wine/beer

when the wine is in the next room, and they are upstairs....

Sometimes i can't be arsed walking upstairs for a wee so i pee in a glass lol

I'm on the lookout for a chamberpot when we go to markets etc (or I was until DH pointed out it'll be 'used'), and our bathroom is on the same floor 🙈

I'm pretty gross tbh. I burp very loudly and find it funny. I fart a lot. I pick my nose. I also eat like a pig sometimes. Annnnd i talk to myself out loud. Sometimes I recount previous conversations and say the highlights out loud. Sometimes it's imaginary conversations. Sometimes I just speak my thoughts out loud.

Only for wee's, of course!

I won't really get one, I just want one
