Hello,
I have a big problem with food, from my anxiety. Because I get very much panic and anxiety, I try to get ways to calm me down and make me happy. I always loved to eat and also my mother loved to feed me. To eat makes me calm and secure. But this becomes a problem to me- I get compulsion to eat, and in fact this becomes a new source of anxiety. I get very panic if I don't have access to food and opportunity to eat. This makes making new routine, for example holiday, or to be spontanious action difficult. Also difficult because I must withdraw from social and leisure etc, to eat after some time.
Also has physical effect- I am very obese and gets joint pain and respiratory illness. To eat is my only way to manage generally anxiety, but it is causing to me more stresses and problems. :weep:
Thank you
