Comfort in Sweets

What do you do when you have that urge that nothing else will fill? That urge to eat as many of the cookies or as much of the cake, etc., as you feel you can. Do you give in or do you have an alternative you turn to? It’s almost a feeling of desire for delicious things but also a feeling of wanting to punish myself at the same time. Like “I am so bad because I can’t control myself that I might as well just stuff myself til I’m miserable because I’ll never get better anyway”. Then I hate myself and my body even more. Does that resonate with anyone? #BingeEatingDisorder #MentalHealth #Depression

I really hate the way I look

Throughout my life I have had men especially men I have had crushes on reject me or say stuff about the way I look that I am not attractive and I am ugly. I have even been told I am not appealing. I don’t think I am pretty and therapy doesn’t help that. I never liked the way I looked even when I was skinny. Now I am overweight because of my mental health medications. It’s just what can I do if I was born this way? I always had people be so rude and mean to me. I don’t see why people can’t be nice, I have been through so much and I am close to 30 and a virgin.

People are so rude. I keep thinking about all the times people have offended me and I have felt disrespected me.

I keep remembering this one guy who knew my uncle and he told me my life could be a lot worse and then one time I used to talk to this girl who was a really bad nasty person who took advantage of me and he told me I am too young to be hanging out with her that she is a fine lady. I also keep remembering there was this one guy who worked as a mental health technician at the mental hospital I was in and he told me to leave him alone and then he saw me got hospitalized again and he asked how I am doing. Another mental health technician named Alex told me what I am going through must be tough and it doesn’t effect his life whatsoever. I can’t count how many times I have had men be rude and disrespectful to me even cops. I don’t see why they can’t be nice. I have been called ugly my whole life. I don’t know why people have to be so rude to me. That’s why I am not gonna tolerate bullsh*t anymore and I am gonna be mean too. There have been plenty of more times people have been rude to me; countless. That is why I choose to stay away from people. I rather be by myself..

I am not finding the type of mental help that I want that can help change my life

There was one time I was hospitalized in a residential treatment center in Florida and one of the female mental health techs that I kept talking to and opening up to told me to make a wish and it will come true. I feel like the wish is coming true but it wasn’t even like a big wish. I wish I made a better wish. I wish that I can have 100 more wishes come true because honestly right now my life sucks and I am barely living. I hope I can get my 100 wishes one day soon. It would mean the world to me if I do.

I'm new here!

Hi, my name is runixcube. I've been diagnosed with ADHD, and I had clinical depression in the past. I also had a binge eating disorder for the last couple of years, and I still have emotional bonds with food.

Even though I tick all the boxes for having BPD, the time intervals in which I experience mania and depression arent long enough to be diagnosed. But that doesnt mean im not struggling. I'm no professional, but I know that if its enough to affect my lifestyle then its a problem. So I want to learn more about it.

I really dont know what else to write. I wish everyone well. I hope you all are having a good day, and if you arent, i hope your day turns out good later on, or i hope tomorrow is better than today.
