[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both of my kids with ADHD binge eat sweets sometimes, which presents in different ways. I agree it has to do with self-regulation and sleep issues. One of them just eats a lot of sweets during the day, more than most. But it hasn't caused a weight issue and we just continue to stress healthy eating (they eat well at meals). The other one would sneak and binge eat at night and we have had to work with them to stop doing this, more because of the waking up and sneaking around rather than the eating. [/quote] OP here. Thank you! Can you offer any tips on how you have handled it? This is precisely what my daughter does. She sneaks and binge eats at night, and I find all kinds of wrappers and entire snack boxes empty in the morning, usually hidden somewhere. What approaches have worked? Did you lock the pantry? She is ADHD combined, and I was thinking this may be akin to compulsive.[/quote]
