Dealing with Cravings

[Paul]

Welcome!

[Lucy Sneeringer]

HI – I’m brand new. My books just arrived in the mail today. I have so many questions and don’t know where to begin. I’m addicted to sugar and overeating. My last binge was Saturday night — I’m STRUGGLING with the need for sugar and am white-knuckling my way through each hour of the day since.

Hi Lucy!

Have you had a chance to view the virtual meetings specifically around food? I suggest that as you’ll have an immediate support group the moment you log in.

I hope in the past days the cravings have lifted some.

Warmly,
Jenny

I have discovered in recovery from compulsive overeating that I experience anxiety. (What am I going to eat, I can’t eat, I want to eat)
A couple months ago I heard from a psychiatrist about utilizing Gregorian Chant as a way to overcome depression, anxiety and compulsions. (up to 24/7; with it barely audible) Whenever I’m in my kitchen, I now listen to Gregorian chant. (On YouTube) It has made a huge difference in my recovery. I have been abstinent 50 days as of today.

Thank you Linda. I attempted something like this myself but did not follow through. I need to follow up on this great idea.
