[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did that because I was deemed fat (in retrospect I was not!) and didn't want to eat my favorite foods in front of people and feel shamed for it.[/quote] Same here. One other thing that I haven’t seen mentioned, OP: does your DD have an ADHD diagnosis? I was not treated for ADHD until adulthood and was very prone to sneak eating and binge eating. There was a lot contributing to this but the untreated ADHD was probably the worst culprit. What your DD may be doing is dopamine-seeking behavior. When she needs that need, she realizes what’s happened and is confused and embarrassed and hides stuff. Once my dopamine-seeking behavior was balanced with ADHD medication, I didn’t have the same urge to binge or sneak. Look up ADHD in girls. Some of the signs are sneaky and it’s easy for girls to slide by without anyone noticing that they may be struggling.[/quote]
