I have also been relieved of depression
I believe I was born with this disease. As a child I ate more than what I was comfortable with on many occasions; eating the biggest apple in the fruit bowl, when I knew it wasn’t a good idea because I wouldn’t be hungry for dinner, but not being able to not do so, sneaking food, being overcome with the obsession to eat a can of cream corn in the middle of a Sunday afternoon, thinking I’m not sure that I want to do this but I can’t stop myself anyway.

During my adolescence I used laxatives because I was often constipated. I was only a little overweight once or twice in my life and there were times when I was “nice and thin”. One summer I thought I “had it made” because my stomach was flat enough to wear a bikini. I thought my eating was neurotic but I thought that other neurotic women like me ate like that and I would just grow out of it.
