chocaholics anonymous...

Why hasn't anyone come up with that yet? I bet if someone were to take a poll on how many ppl are chocaholics, those numbers would scare you. I think chocaholism is just as bad as any addiction. Just like alcholics, chocaholics turn to chocolate for comfort. After doing that for some time, it becomes a pattern, an addiction. When do you know that it has become a problem? When you see chocolate and you have no self control, you just have to eat the chocolate or when you're lying in bed late at nite reading a book and you have a craving for chocolate and you just have to eat chocolate (eventhough you've already brushed your teeth and it's 12:30PM). This is when you have to face the fact that you have a problem. Sigh. Hi, my name is vivien and I'm a chocaholic. There, I did it. I admit it. I seemed to have fallen victim to this ism. I have turned to chocolate when I'm happy, when I'm sad and just for comfort. This has caused me to become fairly unhealthy. I eat chocolate whenever, wherever. I just need chocolate. Is this bad? I think so. I need to go to a chocaholics anonymous group meeting or something. I have got to stop. This is insane. I eat so much chocolate it scares me. But, I can't stop eating it. I just can't! Help! Anyone have any ideas as to how to treat this problem? I tried hiding all the chocolate in my home, but it doesn't work. I seemed to have lost my self control. Hopefully when I return to Toronto, I will be able to break off this chocolate eating behaviour of mine. In the mean time, I think I'm just waiting for the day when I eat a piece of chocolate and quickly proceed to throw it up becuase I'm so revolted. Why do I have such a relationship with chocolate? I love chocolate, why does it hurt me so?? Bah!
