I know. I'm going through a lot of stress right now, and all I can think about is how much I want to smoke pot and binge eat, and how good that would feel.
All the other options I'm offering myself as ways to relax and self-care that aren't destructive seem boring and shitty in comparison. A warm bath? Whatever. A cup of tea? Oh yes, let's drink tea and that'll solve everything! /s
But the way I'd feel AFTER a binge would be worse than any benefit I'd get from it. So far, I've resisted.
I've done some reading on alcoholism to try and understand more about the addicted mind. (Drinking: A Love Story by my favorite author, Caroline Knapp, is my most recent read) And the truth is...you won't be able to handle the addictive behavior unless you can learn to just accept and deal with those emotions instead of avoiding them.
Not trying to chastise you, at ALL. Just sharing what's on my mind. For me, I'm just white-knuckling it lately. No pot, no binge eating. I've had a few good days, and I plan on keeping it up. We'll see.
I love Geneen Roth! I cannot recommend this book enough for anyone who struggles with food related issues.

I did Overeater's anonymous and for about 4-6 months it really helped me and then I went back to my ED, I think because it was an avoidance thing rather than dealing with my underlying issues (though it def may work for other people). The Chemistry of Joy workbook was helpful to me and this book was a bit fluffy but the ideas in it are the same ones I've been working on w my therapist that have really helped me stop binge eating: https://www.amazon.com/When-You-Refrigerator-Pull-Chair/dp/0786885084
