Binge Eating Disorder - Stop Binge Eating DisorderBinge Eating is bulimia without the vomiting and other weight-reducing strategies. About 2-5% people experience Binge eating disorder in about 6 months. People with Binge eating disorder experience frequent episodes of out-of-control eating with the same Binge-Eating symptoms as those with Bulimia. The main difference is that individuals with Binge Eating disorders do not purge their bodies of excess calories. Therefore, many with the disorder are over-weight for their age and height. It is a vicious cycle - feelings of self disgust and shame associated with this illness can lead to Bingeing again, creating a cycle of Binge eating. Symptoms of Binge Eating disorder
Treatment of Binge EatingCognitive behaviour therapy has been shown to be more effective than both interpersonal psychotherapy and drug treatments. SSRIs (fluoxetine) are also an effective treatment, even in the absence of a depressive illness. Eating Disorder Overview
