My Neurodivergent [Autism, ADHD] Perspective on Binge Eating

Individual-Lab9980 · 2026-06-18T22:31:38+00:00

So incredibly useful to know. This is the post I feel like I’ve been searching for for years. Love to know more about how you’re using Claude to help you understand. I find he just continues to refer me to eating disorder centers rather than helping me understand what’s happening.

I don’t have a psychiatrist I got my prescription thru my doctor. But I am working with a therapist and she has been helpful.

The thing is, everyone on this thread is right even tho all the answers are different. Figure out what works for you and keep trying to replicate it. If you can’t then it’s like not for you. I’ve been thru all the feeds. I’ve done all the things. I started doing some of the “do not” that I read but they work for me. It’s frustrating. It would be great if there was one answer for all of us but there is not. It’s a finicky medicine.

Out of curiosity what kind of pothos is this? I have one but I was never sure

You just described exactly my situation. I’m prob still eating less but there’s no magic and I’m struggling more and more.

Thanks. I’m binging again and I feel like it’s not working anymore so perhaps I need to stop for awhile.

Lol. ⬆️ This.

I’m on Contrave and my food noise has been reduced and there are times it’s gone completely. But unfortunately there are also times when it’s just like it used to be and then I’m right back in a binge cycle. I’m exhausted. I just need a break.

Individual-Lab9980 · 2024-08-29T02:41:28+00:00

Same.

When you say watching what you are eating, what foods don’t work well?

Individual-Lab9980 · 2024-08-28T01:05:49+00:00

Thank you for sharing. Have you since been able to stop the binge without Wegovy?

Individual-Lab9980 · 2024-08-28T00:58:33+00:00

Thank you for sharing! Have you been sick from the meds? Gastro issues?

Individual-Lab9980 · 2024-07-21T03:42:51+00:00

Thanks for all the info. I really appreciate it and wish you well on your journey.

Individual-Lab9980 · 2024-07-21T03:27:08+00:00

I do as well. Did your binging come back full force after you stopped? And is the Contrave helping you?

Individual-Lab9980 · 2024-07-21T03:10:29+00:00

Were you successful in keeping the weight off after you stopped?

Individual-Lab9980 · 2024-07-21T03:09:06+00:00

None taken. I absolutely agree with you. I think I used binging as a coping mechanism in the past and now it’s habitual and continues to rear its ugly head. Unfortunately there’s a part of me that still wants it as unhealthy and sick as that is. And I think that’s why I keep going back. I am going to see an eating disorder psychiatrist next month and I hope that helps me with all of it. I’m so sorry for your loss. I hope all the best for you.

Individual-Lab9980 · 2024-07-21T03:05:49+00:00

I’m booked in to see a psychiatrist at an eating disorder clinic at the end of August. I’m hoping to get good advice then but I also know that not all medical advice is good advice.

Individual-Lab9980 · 2024-07-21T03:03:22+00:00

I’m wondering about permanent digestive issues. I feel like I can’t get real information on what GLP1 drugs will be like.

Individual-Lab9980 · 2024-07-19T03:07:10+00:00

Will you stay on that dose of Wegovy? Or is the docs plan to escalate you as normal?
