Testimonials

"If I never said thank you before, let me say it now. Even though it took you almost six weeks to get me to go for treatment, you never gave up on me, like I always gave up on myself. A special thanks to Jodi who never stopped believing in me. By the way, I have been in recovery for 7 months now, what a miracle."
Erin B, Minneapolis, Minnesota

"It's been 17 months, six days and four hours since I last purged, but who is counting. It turned out to be much harder to give up my eating disorder than the cocaine. You were right about going to an eating disorder treatment center that was just as skilled in drug addiction as bulimia. Life is Good!"
Brenda T., Chicago Illinois

"We wanted to thank you helping us find treatment for our daughter. She's like a different person. We are so grateful to all of your staff."
Nancy and Gary B. - Baltimore, Maryland

"I was so scared to go to treatment, but Belinda never gave up on me. She found me the greatest treatment center. If you could thank her for me I would appreciate it."
Sarah P. - Raleigh, North Carolina

"Donna, if there is ever anything you need from me just let me know. I am still in recovery, 2yrs., and if I didn't listen to you that day, I never would have made it. Thanks!!!!"
Barbara S. - Long Island, New York

"Bobbie at EatingDisorderClinic.org rocks! Just want you to know I took your advice and followed through with treatment. You were right, I needed to be there and yes, it changed my life."
Lisa R. - Union, New Jersey

Recognizing Binge Eating Symptoms & Signs

There are three fundamental signs of binge eating disorder:

The individual experiences frequent episodes of binge eating, during which they feel out of control
Feelings of depression, anxiety, embarrassment and distress during and after the binge eating episodes
Lack of attempts to eliminate the calories or food ingested through vomiting, compulsive exercise or fasting.*

* Individuals who experience binge eating followed by vomiting, compulsive exercising or fasting are usually suffering from bulimia nervosa, not binge eating disorder.

Emotional Binge Eating Signs & Symptoms

Eating disorders are normally developed as a result of emotional issues that the individual is trying to repress or avoid dealing with. This can cause the individual to feel immense guilt and self-loathing every time they have an episode. They usually know the dangerous effects of binge eating and constantly worry about the damage they are doing to their bodies, although they feel as if they have no control over their situation to do anything about it.

Do You Exhibit Any of These Binge Eating Signs & Symptoms?

If you answer "yes" to any or all of these questions, then you may be suffering from binge eating disorder:

Do you become preoccupied thinking of food?
Do you eat your meals in secret?
Do you eat until you get physically sick?
Do you feel out of control around food or when you are eating?
Do you turn to food as a source of comfort or as a means of coping?
Do you feel ashamed or depressed after eating?
