You can try to buy healthy snacks or cut vegetables that you can binge on when you have a manic episode. Nevertheless, your mental health is so much more important, so don't be hard on yourself if you gain weight🤗

so I get this way with my eating disorder. I binge when I’m manic and it’s hard dealing with both. what I do is get organic snacks (chronic illnesses, have to.) and set out what I’m going to eat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if I can. you can even set up days your want to make dinners. I only do that a couple times a week because I get exhausted with work at times

Use the manic energy to walk or run on top of the eating. The gym is still the best therapist I've ever had. I can't wait to go back!
