Hi Laan, I hear you loud and clear. My problems also. I notice when I'm very busy and keep busy and focused on many other things, it helps. I suppose it's using distraction. Or the activity addresses my needs better.
One of my difficulties now is having a chronic illness that really slows me down. So now I've got to get my mind working in my favor more as the eating has become the panacea, the habit.
I don't really have answers, just join you in the struggle and wanted you to know you're not alone.
I'm trying to learn to love myself just the way I am, accept myself as is and give myself compassion. With early conditioning that is the challenge of my life, to love and support myself just as I am, be my own best friend. It's a constant practice to remind myself and replace those inner tapes that tear myself down. In a less supportive environment, it's even more necessary and more challenging.
Let's hang in there, carry on with heart and perseverance, and never give up. Wishing you well,
Nea
