Hi. All I do is eating. I eat and eat and when I get sick of it I feel guilty and embarrassed. Then I usually vomit. Overeating is no fun. I think I have some sort of an eating disorder. What do you think?

Hi. There are many types of eating disorder. However, I can tell you are not suffering from anorexia for sure. Eating disorders characterized by Overeating are binge eating disorder and bulimia. The symptoms of binge eating disorders are frequent episodes of eating large amount of food, feeling that you can`t control what and how much you eat, eating more rapidly than usual, eating alone, until uncomfortably full, and felling guilty after overeating. People with bulimia purge themselves after an episode of overeating, by vomiting or using laxatives.
