I need help with a eating disorder?


I have a junk food eating disorder. Whenever my parents arent home I sneak food. Mostly it's because I am bored. I would love for some help. Thanxs in advance

I don't think that qualifies as an eating disorder, just as an unhealthy habit.
Eating disorders aren't glamorous or fun... they're serious problems that lead to serious consequences.
Just keep yourself occupied - read a book, play a video game, watch TV, go for a walk, draw a picture, do a puzzle, write a to-do list for the summer, call up a friend. Anything to keep your mind occupied.

Are you binging and purging? or are you simply getting the munchies? If you are simply sneaking a little junk food then you do not have an eating disorder. However, if you are making yourself throw up afterward you have a serious problem. Not meaning anything bad. But Bulimia is a serious eating disorder and you need to seek help asap. If you feel secure enough talk to your parents, i know you may be embarrassed but you should not. If parents is not an option you need to seek a school counselor, or someone with enough knowledge to get you some serious help.
Again, if you are just munching on food, and not purging. You should be ok. Try to pick up some hobby to take the place of food. Like hiking, aerobics, these will not only make you feel healthy but it will improve your self consciousness.

You don't have an eating disorder.
And even saying you is seriously insulting those who actually do.
You have bad eating habits, is a better way to put it.

And those people who claim they can't stop eating junk....
Just put the chocolate down and pick up an apple.
Nobodys forcing you to eat trash.
Try eating foods with healthy nuterients and benefits.

Maybe...I don't know...get a hobby.
Something to keep you out of the kitchen.

If its because youre bored how about you get a new hobby or sign up for volunteer work or a sports team. Maybe try dance or volleyball, or you can maybe go to the gym a few times a week so you dont gain weight. If nothing works get rid of the junk food! If you think it becomes to serious maybe actually talk to someone. I hope I helped ;)

i used 2 eat a lot when i was bored. but n ow i just say "no", "im not going to eat things that are bad for me when i can be doing something productive" go outside and play, or eat a healthy snack like celery or something, hint: i get full faster when i eat healthy stuff. so just leave out the junkfood and do something good for yourself. :) hope i helped!

tell your parents to keep track of the food in the house.
make it so that if you do sneak food , then youll get in trouble.
it sounds bad right now, but it works like a charm .
if they see 3 bags of chips missing , then you cant use your computer for 3 days. it workss, trust me .

Try to not eat when you are not hungry. Yes, I know its hard. Also, if you are hungry, choose something healthy. for example: if you want something crunchy, have some carrots or celery. if you want something sweet, have a peice of fruit. ifyou want something salty, have some pretzals!

find other things to do to take your mind off eating. most people eat out of boredom.
find hobbies and activities you like.
drink lots of water aswell. sometimes you can mistake thirst for hunger.
its all in your head, just got to get out of routine

Have them hide the food somewere or just think if you eat too much you will get really fat and it will be hard to get rid of. Also if you get too fat it could cause you to get a heart attack which can lead to death

Try switching your brand of junk food. Instead of milk chocolate, try dark chocolate. Instead of potato chips try mini rice cakes.

It's still junk food but at least you'll be toning down on sugar and fat..
