Help with purging

I’m confused about my eating habits.
But I’m writing here from desperation. I want someone to come along and tell me not to do it. I went out for a meal with my husband and all I want to do is make myself be sick. He’s sleeping and can’t resist the urge tk sneak away.
But I’m a mother to a 2 year old girl and this is not ok.
It’s like an angel on one shoulder and a demon on the other. One showing me light and telling me it’s not the answer, the promise is empty, you wil only feel worthless, it’s unhealthy, you’re a mother, you’re responsible for your daughters health, get a grip.
The demon says it’s a one off, the bingeing won’t happen again, you won’t be so full again, it will just help you sleep, it’ll be over so soon, you’ll feel relieved.

I don’t have a massive problem with this behaviour but I have noticed the odd occasion where I’ll eat too much and just feel so uncomfortable I have to force myself t be sick. It’s happened enough to make me aware it’s not ok. Not every day not every week but maybe once a month sometimes more.
I know it’s not ok and I need to resist

We're sorry to hear you're feeling like this, OP

We're going to move this one over to our eating disorders board for you now. We hope you get the advice and support that you are after over there.
