Binge eating can be a very distressing and isolating struggle that people often deal with in silence. You may ask, "why am I struggling with this and others aren't?". Today, I wanted to de-mystify binge eating, to help you understand this very question. In the episode I discuss:

• What is binge eating
• Binge eating vs BED
• Factors that lead to a binge
• Using food as a coping mechanism
• Using food to fulfil unmet needs
• The role of diet culture
• Physical and mental restriction

Look out for my next episode, where I'll focus on putting today's learning into practice, and actionable steps to help you overcome binge eating.
