10 Common Eating Disorders
Common Eating Disorder #8: Binge Eating
We all enjoy a good feast from time to time. Food is often so delicious that it’s hard to say no to more, particularly around holidays. Most of the time, though, we tend to be quite sensible when it comes to eating, but binge eating is an eating disorder found in some people.
A binge eating episode can cause somebody to eat so much that they feel physically sick and vomiting is not uncommon. Afterwards, they will likely feel depressed and ashamed of themselves. Binge eating can be triggered by stress and depression and can affect people more at certain times of the year such as holidays when they are expected to be social.
