> There are a lot of posts about binging, but isn't there a place in the middle? Like a median between binging and total starvation? I eat, but according to everyone else i don't eat much. To me, though, it feels like i've eaten too much and afterwards the guilt is simply...

yeah sweetie, there are people who feel similarly to you.

i was just looking through the posts on the board trying to find some people with anorexia. my friend has anorexia, you see. i've been trying to learn more about it so i might be in a better position to help him.

i guess there are binge eating disorders (where people eat too much)
then there is bulimia where people binge (eat too much) and sometimes they purge as well (to get rid of what they have eaten).
then there is anorexia where people eat so little (and sometimes purge what little they eat) that they are unable to maintain healthy body weight.

sometimes it can be about guilt with eating.

what kind of weight are you maintaining? you don't have to tell me... but are you seriously underweight, or underweight, or normal weight?

different people do eat differently and some eat more than others...

but the guilt doesn't sound good... do you have a therapist to talk to about the guilt?
