we binge because we feel the urge to binge" she said that correctly. The reason why the ugres come(or why the disorder has developed in better words) can be different for different people that part she didin't explain correctly. "It's both external and internal" you said.. what part exacly is external? Does somebody force you to binge? Everything is interal. If you binge because it's your coping mechanism that's internal too. Insted of trying to prove the point try to listen to people who recovered. Realisticly speaking us that recovered and that are at normal weight probably know how to recover better then those who still didin't figure it out right? Just logically speaking. Your feelings aren't the direct reason for binge eating disorder. The disorder is a seperete loop in your head. You may not be able to recover from it because of other emotional or mental issues tho you can recover from disorder and still keep other mental issues.
