Recognition
Do any of these feel familiar?
People describe eating rapidly and past the point of fullness, often in secret or when alone. The food choices are typically high in sugar or fat — 'comfort' foods. During the episode there is a temporary numbing of emotional pain, followed by shame, disgust, and distress. Many describe feeling on 'autopilot' without full awareness of how much was consumed. The cycle of restriction and bingeing is common.
