Restriction of food intake, extreme weight loss, and distorted body image.
Bulimia Nervosa
Cycles of binge eating followed by purging behaviors.
Binge Eating Disorder
Frequent overeating episodes with feelings of shame or lack of control.
ARFID
Restrictive eating not tied to body image but still causing health issues
OSFED
Disordered eating patterns that don’t fit into one diagnosis but still require treatment.
Signs and Symptoms of Eating Disordersr
It’s normal for people to occasionally feel concerned about food choices, weight, or body image. However, when these concerns turn into persistent signs of an eating disorder, such as harmful eating habits, distress around food, or an unhealthy focus on weight, they go beyond everyday fluctuations.
Recognizing the signs and symptoms of eating disorders, including the nature, duration, and intensity of eating behaviors, is essential for knowing when professional support is needed. Eating disorders affect the mind and body in multiple ways, and these eating disorder signs may vary depending on the specific type of condition.
- Anorexia often involves extreme restriction of food intake and an intense fear of gaining weight.
- Common signs and symptoms include:
- Significant weight loss or failure to maintain healthy body weight.
- Preoccupation with food, calories, or dieting.
- Distorted body image (seeing oneself as overweight despite being underweight).
- Avoiding meals, skipping social events with food.
- Excessive exercise or strict food rituals.
- Feeling cold, fatigue, or dizziness from malnutrition.
- Bulimia is marked by cycles of binge eating followed by behaviors to “undo” the calories consumed. These cycles are often hidden, leading individuals to feel guilt, shame, or secrecy around their habits.
- Common signs & symptoms of bulimia include:
- Feeling out of control during eating episodes .
- Self-induced vomiting, use of laxatives, or diuretics.
- Frequent trips to the bathroom after meals.
- Swollen cheeks, sore throat, or dental issues from purging.
- Preoccupation with weight and body shape.
Unlike bulimia, binge eating disorder does not include purging behaviors. Instead, episodes of overeating lead to emotional distress and health consequences.
- Common signs and symptoms include:
- Eating much more rapidly than normal.
- Consuming large amounts of food even when not hungry.
- Eating until uncomfortably full.
- Eating alone due to shame or embarrassment.
- Feelings of guilt, disgust, or depression after binge episodes.
- Weight fluctuations or obesity-related complications.
