Too often people think binge eating is a matter of will power or a dieting issue, when in fact, binge eating is often a person’s best attempt to regulate really big feelings that they don’t know how to deal with. Typical feelings that people will eat down are anger, anxiety, depression, procrastination is often a source of anxiety that results in people binge eating.
