Tips for overcoming bulimia

Wash your face with cold water

When we want to eat, touching our face with something cold will stimulate our vagus nerve and activate the "parasympathetic nervous system". We can wash our face or put on a mask. If we have neither, try to close your mouth and hold your nose, and then try to exhale gently.

Take a deep breath slowly.

When inhaling, count for 2 seconds, hold your breath for 5 seconds, and then exhale slowly for 7 seconds.

Avoid taking octacaffeine or tea polyphenols.

The direct effects of caffeine and tea polyphenols are: the brain becomes excited and starts the "sympathetic nervous system", which may lead to anxiety, and it is easy to relieve emotions through overeating.

Avoid high-sugar foods.

Sucrose is highly addictive, so sweets can't stop us from eating it. If you really want to eat sweets, you can consider changing sugary drinks or chewing gum, especially chewing gum, which will deceive your body, make it think you are eating, forcibly activate the "parasympathetic nervous system" and get short and wonderful comfort ~
