When Your Partner Binge Eats
Briefly

Dr. Lee, a therapist, faced uncertainty about the return of her clients Ana and Jacob after a difficult prior session. During their meeting, Ana prompted Jacob to share his feelings about her binge eating behavior. Jacob expressed his struggles, highlighting feelings of powerlessness and sadness. Dr. Lee guided Jacob to communicate his emotions without criticizing Ana's actions. This session underscored the importance of expressing emotions constructively to foster understanding in relationships affected by binge eating disorder.
I feel powerless. Nothing I do seems to help. When food disappears, I feel angry but afraid to say anything. When I see you binge eating, I feel sad and at a loss about what to do.
This is hard for me to say, but I will give it a try. I just want it to stop. I don't understand why you keep doing it when it makes you so unhappy.
