Well, here recently its mainly not having a job and not having adequate meds thats stressing me out. I guess I keep eating as an effort to self medicate. But I've been feeling a bit better since I first posted this, and not binging. I can see how people binge and purge though, when you eat so much you feel like you could throw up, its not hard to see how you move to that next step.
Despite feeling better, I've started feeling the anxiety coming on here in the past hour or so. I wish I had some Xanax, or a cigarette, but I'm all out, and quit smoking. Sometimes there doesn't need to be a trigger, just overall anxiety about life in general I guess.
I'll be okay. I've just been upset about the job situation and feeling inadequate. But I've gone from feeling depressed to determined to keep myself as busy as possible with the job hunt. I appreciate for the support!
