Yes YABU .

it's NO reason to hate yourself.

As ling as you don't make a habit of eating at 2am it's not going to hurt you!

Do you want to talk about what's upsetting you?

I do binge all the time and other things I probably shouldn’t put on here

That's no reason to hate yourself. Please share as much as you feel able and talk on here.

Don't beat yourself up. Get to the bottom of it. Many people will understand. Talk.

Yeah binging isn't good for you & whatever the other thing is can't be either if you're worried about mentionjng it on here, but thst doesn't make you a bad person & certainly not one you should hate. You need help not hate!

you need to talk. On here is fine. Plenty of us to listen. But someone trained too would be a good thing. If you can afford to go private, do that, if not you should be able ti self refer to an NHS therapist.

It's food, not morals. If you've mugged a granny or something, that's a reason to hate yourself, not this. It's clearly not doing you any good, physically or mentally, but you're not harming anyone else. Be kinder to yourself, and look into therapy.

Op that's no reason to hate yourself. Binge eating disorder is an eating disorder, not a choice, and I really feel for you. Someone close in my life has this too and it's so insidious and damaging. Please do get support on here as much as you feel you can, and consider in person support for this too..

Imtornanddontknowwhattodo · 16/01/2026 02:37

That sounds awful for you.

YABU.
Binging til sick not great though.
could you binge on home popped popcorn instead? Keep some different flavours in stock. Even melted butter and sugar big bowl popcorn better than mac D.

ultimately if you’re not hungry you won’t binge.
