Hey sweetie,
I completely understand, when I'm stressed my ED raises its head & tempts me in with promises of release, but in actual fact, all the ED does is stress you further.
Do you get any professional help atall?
When your stressed, do you talk to anyone about how you're feeling? I find a little call or rant or cry to my Mum helpful, or I just rant. Talking about how you're feeling is important it can help see things clearly instead of using that knee jerk reaction to binge&purge. I also find helpful, when I'm stressed to bake, something I really enjoy & I get aggression out beating bread up! Obviously this isn't for everyone & could instigate a binge in itself, but the point I'm trying to make is be kind to yourself, try not to reward yourself with binging, reward yourself with something you enjoy, a hot bath, a good film, anything. Maybe take 30 minutes a day to just relax, be kind to yourself & do something for you.
