What are some of the other "tools" that I can use to work through the "stuff" that makes me compulsively over eat?


Whatever it takes for you to stop using food as a drug. Counselling, self-help books like those of Geneen Roth, accepting the process of growth and the pain and joy that comes with it, choosing not to eat to make the pain go away and letting yourself feel what your feeling. I do recommend OA. If anything you can commit to abstinence from compulsive overeating and get support with the OA program. You take what you need from the meetings, leaving the rest behind.

Whatever you do, you have to be completely willing to let go of compulsive overeating.
