Truth be told, I’ve been thinking about writing this particular piece for a while, but I’ve found it hard to start. GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Mounjaro are still relatively new, and the research is young, especially when it comes to their long-term effects. It’s also a complex topic - you can’t talk about GLP-1s and binge eating recovery in isolation, without also looking at the ways they might support or put our health at risk in other ways.

What I think has been my biggest barrier with this piece is that for the first time, I’m writing about something that I have no personal experience with. I know binge eating disorder inside out - I struggled with it for 14 years before my recovery. I’m also a Highly Sensitive Person, and I know the ways the trait can play into our relationships with food and our bodies. But I’ve not taken GLP-1 medications.

GLP-1s, however, are becoming increasingly prevalent. And the women I’m here to support, perhaps you’re one of them (hi!), are experiencing this on many levels, from “What’s this Ozempic everyone’s talking about?” to “I’ve tried everything to lose weight, my binge eating is out of control, and GLP-1s are my last hope”.

And so I’ve learnt everything I can about GLP-1s, especially in the context of eating disorders (which there is very little research into currently). I’ve also sought out others' personal experiences, and am grateful to have people in my life who are willing to share theirs so openly with me. I’ve given it all time to digest and feel like I’ve got something that I hope will be helpful to those who struggle with binge eating, who resonate with the Highly Sensitive Person trait, and are exploring GLP-1s - either as an answer to weight loss, or recovery, perhaps both.

I’ll also share with you the approach I use to support highly sensitive women in freeing themselves from binge eating - one that addresses the root causes and works with your sensitivity as an innate gift, not a challenge to be overcome.

This is likely the beginning of a longer conversation around GLP-1s, especially as they continue to take root not only in our medical systems but also in everyday culture, particularly around weight and body image. It’s an interesting time to be alive in so many ways, and this medication is certainly playing a role in that.

Let’s explore it together…


Note: This article is comprehensive - feel free to scroll to whichever sections resonate most with where you’re at right now. 

We’ll start at the beginning: What is binge eating?

You might be coming to this piece knowing that you binge eat, or maybe you feel that your relationship with food isn’t quite “right” and you’re looking for answers - perhaps wondering whether a GLP-1 medication is the answer. Wherever you’re at, let’s start with clarity. 

Binge eating is the act of eating a large amount of food in an unconscious way, usually foods which you tend to avoid or limit, in a condensed period of time and past the point of comfortable fullness.

If you binge eat, you’ll likely be familiar with many, if not all, of these accompanying experiences:

• Urges to eat, perhaps for particular foods that get “louder” as you try to ignore them
• Feeling like you’ve lost control as you’re going into a binge - maybe as you’re buying or gathering food too
• A momentary sense of escapism or relief at the beginning of a binge
• Eating in a frenzy, as though you’ve got to get the food in as quickly as possible 
• Eating to the point of feeling deeply uncomfortable, perhaps even sick
• Feelings like regret, shame and guilt following the binge
• The need to keep binges secret, hiding food wrappers or money spent from others
• The desire to “make up” for a binge - maybe skipping meals, recommitting to a diet or “being good”.
  
  

Sometimes binges are planned, such as when you know you’re going to have time alone, but more often than not, they’re spontaneous or opportunistic - when you find you can’t hold off the urges any longer. 

When binge eating becomes binge eating disorder (BED)

People can binge eat from time to time without it necessarily being classed as an eating disorder. However, binge eating disorder (BED) is the diagnosis for when binges become a regular pattern.

To receive a diagnosis, you would need to see your doctor or a healthcare professional who will ask about your experiences, mapping them against the diagnosis criteria. My view is that whether you have a diagnosed eating disorder or not, if you feel that your relationships with food and your body aren’t where you want them to be, you’re absolutely deserving of support, and there is support here for you.

Why you might find yourself binge eating

Binge eating and BED can develop for many reasons, which usually come back to one or two core root causes. Perhaps you recognise yourself in one of these, and if you’re highly sensitive, likely both (we’ll get into why more in the HSP part of this piece)…

Root cause one: Feeling “Not enough”



Root cause two: Managing uncomfortable emotions and overwhelm

Food is comforting. It’s an experience that comes along with having a body - we’re rewarded with good feelings when we eat because it’s an essential part of keeping ourselves alive! There’s also an association that’s been wired into us since we were babies - the warmth, soothing and comfort that most of us hopefully received when our caregivers fed us can remain a part of our relationship with food.

And all of this is okay! It can become a challenge, however, when we primarily look to food for comfort or a sense of happiness - when we don’t have other things in our lives that can provide us with this. This is when binge eating can develop. Our need to shut down overwhelm or uncomfortable emotions can turn into that frenzied eating [1], eating foods rich in carbohydrates, sugar and fat, which can have a soothing effect.

The binge and restrict cycle can also come into play here, when you’re trying to avoid the foods you’re worried will cause weight gain but provide comfort, or when you restrict food after an emotionally driven binge to avoid weight gain.   

Okay, so what are GLP-1s?

GLP-1 medications, which you might know by brand names like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Saxenda, are becoming more and more impossible to ignore. They're in the news, on social media, and perhaps they’ve been coming up in conversations with the people in your life. Developed in the early 2000s to help people manage type 2 diabetes, they've also been approved for weight loss, and are now being explored (though not yet officially approved) for other health challenges such as alcohol addiction and binge eating disorder.

How they work (in simple terms)

GLP-1 stands for "glucagon-like peptide-1", which is a hormone your body naturally makes in your intestines and brain. This hormone has an important job: it tells your brain when you've had enough to eat, it helps regulate your blood sugar, and it slows down how quickly food moves through your digestive system.

GLP-1 medications are "receptor agonists", which essentially means they copy what your body's natural GLP-1 hormone does - like a key that fits the same lock.

When you take these medications, they activate the GLP-1 receptors in your brain and body more than what’s happening naturally, which:

• Reduces your appetite and food cravings
• Makes you feel fuller for longer
• Slows down digestion
• For people with type 2 diabetes, helps regulate blood sugar

The medications work in areas of your brain that control both hunger signals and reward feelings around food - which is why researchers have become interested in their potential for binge eating.

Understanding the Highly Sensitive Person trait

Around 20% of us are Highly Sensitive People (HSPs) [2]; people whose nervous systems are especially attuned to the world around and within us. We’re more sensitive to all kinds of stimulation, from what we receive from our senses like lights, sounds and touch, to inner-body experiences like emotions and thoughts.

This heightened sensitivity is an innate trait, meaning that it’s something that’s a part of us - that we’re born with - rather than learned. It’s thought that the trait is an evolutionary development because having people who are more “in tune” with what’s happening within groups of people and in our environment supports the collective.

It was Dr Elaine N. Aron who first began studying this sensitivity in 1991 and coined the terms Highly Sensitive Person and “sensory processing sensitivity” to describe what’s underlying the trait. She’s the author of The Highly Sensitive Person, which is essential reading for all HSPs!

There are endless benefits to being highly sensitive. We’re all unique in our sensitivities and the ways our gifts manifest - often being especially creative, intuitive and caring, and having the ability to enjoy a richness in simplicity.   

Highly Sensitive People and binge eating

Being highly sensitive can have its challenges, however. If you’re reading this, you might be thinking “Well, yeah!”. It can be especially challenging when we don’t really understand our sensitivity or know how to tend to ourselves as HSPs. And in some cases, this can make us more susceptible to things that lead to binge eating. This was my experience, and is what I now support other highly sensitive women in.

Messages around worth

As HSPs, we take in more information from the world and process it at a deeper level - seeing patterns and giving meaning to them. We may take in more subtle messages around weight and worth, both consciously and unconsciously, and when we’re not feeling secure within ourselves (HSPs often really question themselves and their role in the world), make them mean something about ourselves.

This can lead us to believe that if we were just a little bit slimmer, we’d be more lovable and acceptable, and this belief in turn can send us down the path of weight loss. And so we restrict our food; what we eat, how much we eat and when we eat, potentially initiating the binge restrict cycle we looked at before.

Managing our sensitivity

HSPs also tend to be more emotional, as well as empathetic, feeling not only our own heightened emotions, but also experiencing those of others. And because we’re especially sensitive to our environments, taking in a breadth of information and processing it deeply, we can become overwhelmed more easily. It can be a lot being highly sensitive!

If we have an inclination to turn to food for soothing, comfort and a sense of freedom, we might find ourselves creating patterns of binge eating when we’re feeling overwhelmed or experiencing the uncomfortable emotions we’d rather not. Those short moments of relief that come with a binge can be a powerful drive when there’s a feeling you just want to escape.

GLP-1s and binge eating recovery for HSPs: What to consider

Okay, here we are bringing all of these threads together. And again, there’s so much nuance that comes with each of these that it’s impossible to give you any kind of definitive answer as to whether GLP-1s can be supportive for individual HSPs in recovery - it’s going to be different for everyone. Saying that, you will see that I do have some fairly strong thoughts…

Really, what I’m hoping is that I can give you some points to reflect on, helping you to decide whether you want to try taking GLP-1s as part of your binge eating recovery journey, or not.

When GLP-1s might be part of your journey

When you’re managing diabetes alongside binge eating

Managing type 2 diabetes and binge eating simultaneously can be complex, and if this is your reality, that’s okay. You’re managing your physical health needs alongside emotional patterns and beliefs about your worth that have likely been with you for years. For Highly Sensitive People, the blood sugar rollercoaster (crashes, brain fog, irritability) may feel especially destabilising, and GLP-1s may help to smooth out that ride.

As I mentioned above, GLP-1s were initially developed to help manage type 2 diabetes, and they can do this well. However, it’s important that if you’re exploring this path, you find a healthcare provider who understands both diabetes and eating disorders - who won’t prescribe rigid meal plans and has an awareness of how the weight loss effect of GLP-1s may further impact your relationships with food and your body. This type of provider might call themselves something like “eating disorder-informed”.

I also highly encourage you to work with a binge eating practitioner so that you’re addressing what sits below your binge patterns and can move into a place where binge eating is no longer a part of your life. GLP-1s may help your blood sugar levels find stability, but they can’t do this deeper work for you.

When you’re also dealing with chronic inflammation 

The ways GLP-1s might not serve your recovery

They’re fueling the narratives around weight and worth

I feel this is one of the most important considerations I can offer you.

At the root of binge eating for many of us is the core belief that “I’m not enough” - specifically that your body needs to be smaller to be acceptable, lovable or worthy. This belief drives restriction, which creates urges that eventually break through as binges. And GLP-1 medications do not address this belief - in fact, the way many of us are seeing them reinforce it.

By pursuing weight loss through medication, you’re operating from the same belief system that created binge eating in the first place: the idea that a slimmer body will finally make you enough.

For Highly Sensitive People, this can tighten the knot further. You’re already taking in cultural messages about bodies more deeply. And you might be feeling the weight of judgment, both external and internal, more heavily. As more and more people are taking GLP-1s, often called “skinny jabs”, another layer is being created - the implied message that carrying weight is a choice is becoming stronger. The message is becoming “Well, if weight is a choice and weight loss is so easy, why are you carrying weight?”.

I know that for many of us, weight loss feels like the ultimate goal. Perhaps it’s the primary reason you’re considering GLP-1s. And I understand that - deeply. We live in a culture that has taught us, pretty relentlessly, that our worth is tied to our weight.

But here’s what I encourage you to consider: Can you genuinely heal your relationship with food and your body while taking a weight-loss medication? Or will you feel like you’re continuing further down a path you’ve been many times before, measuring your worth by your weight?

Weight is often regained

Research shows that most people regain weight after stopping GLP-1 medication. According to one review, approximately 60% of weight loss is regained within the first year [5]. This mirrors what happens with restrictive diets: rapid weight loss is often followed by rapid weight regain. Some research even suggests that weight returns more quickly after stopping GLP-1s than after coming off a diet [6].

Around half of people stop taking GLP-1 medications within 12 months, with reasons ranging from side effects, to cost, to simply deciding they don’t want to be taking medication long term. When they do, the health markers that improved whilst on the medication, such as blood pressure, cholesterol and fasting glucose, typically return to baseline within about 1.4 years [6].

Here’s the question this raises: With everything you’ve already been through with food and your body - the years of restriction, the ups and downs of losing and regaining weight, the emotional toll of constantly trying to control your body - can you go through this again? Or, would your energy be better directed toward binge eating recovery?

I’ve not yet seen any research into the psychological impact of rapid weight regain after GLP-1s, but I imagine it’s huge. When you lose weight quickly on the medication and then regain it (as most people do), you’re right back where you started, except you’re now also carrying the experience of “even medication didn’t work”. This feeling can be compounded when you see others who might be having more “success” with the medication.

Here, the self-worth piece still needs to be addressed. But your experience with the medication may have made this harder, not easier. If you’ve spent months or years relying on a drug for appetite regulation, rather than learning to work with your body’s signals, that’s ground you’ll need to recover when doing the deeper recovery work.

You may further lose touch with your body's signals

Listening to and honouring your body’s hunger and fullness cues is an essential part of binge eating recovery. So is learning to eat meals and snacks at regular intervals, so that your body knows it will be fed consistently. These practices help you rebuild trust with your body after years of overriding its signals through restriction and bingeing.

Hunger also isn’t an enemy to be silenced - it’s a part of being alive in a body. There’s a richness of sensation that comes with hunger, eating and satisfaction and profound information available in these experiences, which can be further heightened for HSPs. GLP-1 medications, however, suppress these signals.

People on GLP-1s report their experience of hunger ranging from a lack of interest in food to an active aversion. When hunger is distorted by medication, you lose access to what that hunger is trying to communicate: when restriction has gone too far, what your body actually needs, where emotional overwhelm is showing up, what beliefs about your worth are driving your behaviours.

“Food noise” - that constant mental preoccupation with what to eat, when to eat, and whether you’ve eaten too much can be particularly intense for Highly Sensitive People. Our deeper processing, ability to sense the subtle internal states, emotional reactivity - all of this can make food thoughts feel overwhelming. And I imagine that GLP-1s’ ability to quiet this noise feels like a blessed relief.

But the reminder here is that “food noise” is information. It’s telling you something important. Silencing it without addressing what it’s trying to communicate is like turning off a car dashboard warning light - without fixing the underlying problem - and hoping for the best.

As a Highly Sensitive Person, part of your recovery journey is learning to work with your sensitivity, not against it or trying to “turn it off”. This means listening to your body’s signals - hunger included - as valuable information, rather than silencing them. There’s profound growth available in learning to navigate your sensitivity in relationship to food, emotions and your body. Growth that this medication prevents you from receiving.

They don’t address the emotional side

While GLP-1s can reduce hunger and food cravings, they don’t address why you might be turning to food for emotional comfort in the first place. The medications work on reward pathways, with research showing that they can help reduce cravings for alcohol [7], gambling urges and other compulsive behaviours [8] - not just food. They’re essentially turning down the volume on reward-seeking behaviours across the spectrum.

This can be really helpful, even life-saving for some, and it’s definitely worth acknowledging. However, GLP-1s don’t teach us how to work with our sensitivity and emotions. They sidestep them. And this might be okay, maybe even supportive in the short-term. But again, if you stop taking the medication, you won’t have been practising the emotional and nervous system regulation that is essential to your thriving.

What can be one of the most rewarding parts of binge eating recovery for HSPs is learning about the trait, how it manifests in you specifically and how you can work with it to actually have a deeply supportive relationship with your body - emotions, nervous system and all. The more you understand and work with your sensitivity, the more gifts and glimmers there are to receive from it. This can be missed when you instead opt for the GLP-1 path.

There are health risks

We don’t know the long-term effects of taking GLP-1 medications because they simply haven’t been around long enough for long-term research. What we do know comes from short-term studies, and, increasingly from lawsuits filed by people who’ve experienced serious side effects.

The most significant risks involve the gastrointestinal system: gastroparesis (where food passes through the stomach more slowly than it should, causing nausea, vomiting and heartburn), ileus (lack of bowel movement leading to severe constipation), and intestinal blockage - all of which can be life-threatening if not treated quickly. For anyone with existing gastrointestinal issues, perhaps caused by an eating disorder, there’s potential that GLP-1s could trigger or worsen the symptoms.

As of May 2026, over 3,600 lawsuits have been filed against GLP-1 manufacturer Ozempic (you can find the current figure and more information here), with approximately 75% claiming gastroparesis, and others claiming vision loss, intestinal obstruction, and other severe gastrointestinal injuries.

The research on GLP-1s for binge eating specifically is in its very early stages. The largest review I’m aware of right now includes just 182 people across five small studies, with the longest follow-up being six months [9]. There’s also no research on how these medications specifically affect those who are highly sensitive.

If you were to take GLP-1s, this means that you would be taking a medication with known serious risks and unknown long-term effects, for a condition - binge eating - where its effectiveness hasn’t been adequately studied. The invitation here is to question whether you’re really willing to take on that amount of uncertainty?

It can be harder to meet your nutritional needs

There’s a significant financial investment

GLP-1 medications aren’t cheap. At the time of writing this, if you’re paying privately in the UK, you can expect an expense of around £150 - £300 per month. In the US, it’s around $250 - $450. The impact of this cost is going to be different for all of us, depending on our individual finances - but for the majority, this is a significant amount. 

I know that private binge eating support can be expensive also, with 1-1 support generally ranging from around £300 - £750 a month. And that’s simply not affordable for everyone - I’m aware that my own services are an investment too. But for those who are able to invest in themselves in this way, the difference is this: GLP-1s tend to only give you the benefits whilst you’re taking them, but 1-1 recovery support gives you tools which can stay with you a lifetime.

Already taking GLP-1s?

If you’re currently taking GLP-1 medications, or have taken them in the past, please know: I’m not here to tell you that you’ve made the wrong choice, not at all.

You made that decision for yourself for a reason. And in all honesty, if GLP-1s were around when my own binge eating disorder was at its worst and I was desperately trying to lose weight, there’s every chance I would have tried them too. Again, that’s not to say that I now know better than you; it’s just what is.

Maybe you’re taking them and they’re genuinely helping you to feel more stable in yourself - that’s wonderful. Or perhaps you’re beginning to wonder whether they’re fully supporting the kind of relationship with food and your body that you actually want for yourself. Both of these experiences, and everything in between, are valid. 

If you are questioning where you’re at, and I’m assuming you are in some way if you’ve got this far, these might be reflections you want to give some time and space to:

• “In what ways are GLP-1s serving me right now?”
  
  
• “In what ways are they not?”
  
  
• “What support, if any, am I receiving for the deeper patterns underneath binge eating?”
  
  
• “What’s my plan for when I stop taking GLP-1s (if I choose to)?”

You might discover that GLP-1s are giving you relief from binge eating symptoms, with some welcomed weight loss, but you’re worried about the long-term impact on your relationships with food, your body and sensitivity. Or you might realise that you want to address the root causes we looked at before more directly.

And if reading this piece has brought up feelings of “I shouldn’t have started these” or “I’ve made the wrong choice” - please take a breath. That’s not what this is about, and there’s no shame here.

You’re allowed to have tried something and then realised that it’s not serving your deeper healing. You’re allowed to be on GLP-1s and pursue recovery work simultaneously. You’re allowed to stop them when you’re ready, or continue using them long-term.

This right here is a part of your recovery journey. You’re seeking understanding, and that’s beautiful. So you’re not “behind” or “doing it wrong”, you’re exactly where you need to be.

An approach to recovery for Highly Sensitive Women

There is another way forward towards a life of feeling at peace with food and comfortable within your own body - one that works with your sensitive nature, rather than trying to suppress or override it.

My approach to binge eating recovery is built around what I call “The Six Principles of Recovery for Highly Sensitive Women”. These principles, which work together like interconnected doorways, address what GLP-1s cannot: the underlying beliefs about your worth, the patterns in your nervous system, and how these create the relationships with food and your body that drive binge eating in the first place.

A brief introduction to The Six Principles

One: Returning to a Sense of Safety - Lay the solid foundations of your recovery by learning to regulate your nervous system and feel safe within your body. When you no longer need to disassociate with food, binge urges begin to soften.

Two: Tending to Yourself As a HSP - Understand how sensitivity shows up for you and discover what boundaries and resources help you thrive. Start embracing your sensitivity as the gift it is and allow it to deepen your connection with food.

Three: Connecting to Your Innate Worth - Come home to the innate worth that’s always been within you. As you let go of the pressure to fix or prove yourself, you create a more accepting relationship with yourself and your body.

Four: Unravelling Binge Eating Cycles - Unravel the binge cycles that have been keeping you stuck and reconnect to the cues of your body. Learn to listen to what you’re truly hungry for at any given moment (food or otherwise!) and nip binge urges in the bud.

Five: Being Your Authentic Self - Reconnect with who you are underneath the conditioning; beyond comparison, people-pleasing or perfectionism. As you live more in alignment with yourself, binge urges naturally lose their grip further.

Six: Building Sustainable Support - Build support that honours both your sensitivity and your recovery. Learn to ask for and receive the help you need in ways that feel safe and affirming, creating connections that uplift you.


These principles offer inner shifts and skills which stay with you. They’re not dependent on a medication you take regularly. Instead, they become a part of how you navigate your life, your emotions and your relationship with food as a Highly Sensitive Person.

If something here is resonating with you, I’d love to offer you my free guide: “The Highly Sensitive Woman’s Guide to a Binge Free Life”. It’s a deep dive into the ways that binge eating and high sensitivity can play into one another, and the first steps towards recovery that honour your sensitivity.

“Coming across the guide gave me a clarity I hadn’t had before; I had never made the connection between what I was feeling (overwhelm for the most part), and how that triggered my need to binge.

After feeling for years that I was struggling in the dark, trapped in a never-ending cycle, I was able finally to take a step back and see the link between myself as a sensitive person and my relationship with food. Reading about the need to create a sense of safety, I found I was able to begin to shift my thoughts from self-berating, self-loathing ones, to thoughts of compassion and calm.”

- Rebecca W, Reader

You are deserving of binge eating recovery. Recovery that allows you to trust your body again, to work with your sensitivity as the gift it is, and to know, deeply, that you are worthy exactly as you are.
