Well we were studying eating disorders in my health class today: Anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating disorder. And the more I studied it, the more I realized I am a PERFECT candidate for binge eating disorder. The symptoms are, eating very fast and often eating alone (which I do) nonstop eating (which I do) feeling guilty or ashamed during and after binging (which I VERY well do) and I just can't seem to stop binging!!! (I did it AGAIN today!) Man this really scares me, but I don't know what to do about it! Should I tell my parents I may have this?? Thanks in advance for your help!!
 
I would have thought the best thing to do if you think you may have a problem like that would be to see your doctor. They can diagnose you and point you in the right direction for help, if it turns out you have it.
Try not to panic, im not calling you a hypochondriac or anything but its easy to hear about a problem and think, oh my gosh thats me! Anyways, try not to get too worked up, and see your doctor for help.
Hope that helps!
 
wow i know exactly how i feel! was about to right something exactly like this, except i didnt know it was a eating disorder. i've been binging for the past three days. i've also been fantasizing about food all the time. i've been wanting a powdered donut for the past couple weeks, but i never let myself haveone. instead, i eat tons of other food. i dont really know what to do cause i cant seem to break the cycle. i feel like if i give in and eat the donut, i'll lose or something and i cant let myself do that.
 
Even though eating disorders are staples of emotional issues and control problems really they stem from lack of solid education about how to lose fat in the proper manner.

I would certianly talk to someone about your emotional aspect of things, however I would also work on educating yourself on how the body actually works and why those lifestyles continue to meet you with failure. Basically look at it like this, it doesn't work, it doesn't give you the results. Go with a plan that does, it just so happens that the ones that work are also healthy things to do for your body. Maybe then it will all come together for you.

Good Luck.
 
Can you see if you can stop your behavior for a few days? My husband won't let me look up diseases and disorders and stuff because I always freak myself out....I find one symptom and all of a sudden I'm dying in 4 different ways. :eyeroll:

So I guess I'm saying, make sure that it really is a problem for you before you scare the poop out of your parents. :)
