As a 47-year-old man dealing with binge eating anorexia, I have struggled with shame and isolation for years. It’s been a difficult journey, but I’ve learned that seeking help and connecting with others who understand my struggles has been crucial to my recovery. Through therapy and support groups, I’ve found tools to manage my impulses and address the underlying causes of my disorder. It’s not easy, and there are setbacks, but I am determined to continue on this path towards healing and self-compassion. If you’re dealing with similar challenges, please know that you are not alone. There is hope and help available to you, and it’s okay to reach out for support.
