• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

After I received water baptism in my church last year, I have developed an eating problem. I know that it is the devil trying to get to me. I can go days with barely any food, then I overeat constantly. I feel so sick of my eating problems. I cannot eat properly. I gain and lose an average of 10lbs every week. i want to fast these days and ask God to help me get rid of my problem. I get so sick and tired of my life at times. My family cannot help me and control what I can eat. I have to do it by myself with Jesus' help.I just really need support and help from people. Especially ones who have gone through this before.

Maybe its time to see your medical dr? and tellthem what is happening?
Its a team effort on all parts , even your church. Have you told your pastor what has been going on since your baptism? Have they laid hands on you in Prayer? there are so many people out there you can turn too. But above all else you need to make sure your health is ok, IE Blood tests etc.......


I ate normally. I wasnt so obsessed with food and eating

I agree that you need to see a doctor, sweetie - if you haven't been eaing properly it could cause health problems.
Do you have anyone you can talk to about this? A pastor or close friend? It sounds as though you need some support.
Praying for you :hug:
