I honestly don't know if making this thread is the right thing to do but I'm sorda desperate here.
As most of you know I've struggled with my weight pretty much all my life. Recently though I've come to realize it's much more than that. I've had food issues for most of my life. I've pretty much always dealt with emotional eating. (eating for every reason except hunger). I've always hated my body. I've always hated the way I looked. I've always had low self esteem I think mainly stemming from my weight problems.
I started gaining in around the 3rd grade. Recently I started thinking about why I do what I do. Why I eat like I do. I can't come up with anything. Usually in most people's lives something happens that causes the person to do whatever it is. Nothing happened (that I can remember) in the 3rd grade that made me start emotional eating.
I don't really know the point of this thread. I do know that I'm sorda desperate to find help.
I've seeked out help before but for one reason or another none of them worked out.
I know the Lord can help me and break these chains but honestly y'all I have no idea where to begin.
You don't have to post anything in this thread but if you want to if you've dealt/dealing with this I would love to hear your story. I know out of all the people that grace these boards someone has had to be/been there.
