Eating Addictions
Posted: 10-18-06 05:51am

Hi everyone,


here are two forms of eating addictions.

Eating addictions comes in a couple of forms, i.E. Some people are bulimics while others are anorexia. Bulimics will go on eating binges, while anorexia will strive hard to avoid food. Anorexia eating addictions causes the person to binge while eating, or else cut back on food, while the person places the finger in the mouth to cause vomiting. The issue for the person is gaining weight. On the other hand, bulimics will eat, eat, and eat simply because they cannot get enough. The person often feels regret after overeating, yet they lose control and eat more.

Other types of problems come from addictions, including obsessive-compulsive disorders, which mean the person is obsessed with food to fulfill a need, and compulsive to eat to relieve an area of trouble. With eating disorders in mind, and primary the two being bulimic and anorexic, the variants extend to, including bingers, grazers, etc.

Marvin.

Not all mias(bulimics) binge. Some eat little and purge what they do eat. Some just eat normal! Some people are both anorexic and bulimic.
