What is Binge Eating?
Binge eating is an eating disorder characterized by consuming unusually large amounts of food in a short period, often accompanied by a feeling of losing control. Unlike typical overeating, binge eating episodes can cause significant distress and may lead to physical discomfort, guilt, and shame. This disorder can impact physical and mental health, disrupting daily life and self-esteem. Whether or not it is diagnosed or meet the diagnosis criteria, you derserve attention and care.

Causes of Binge Eating
Binge eating may be triggered by a variety of factors, including emotional distress, low self-esteem, dieting, or traumatic experiences. Psychological factors like stress, anxiety, or depression often play a role, as binge eating can be used as a coping mechanism. Additionally, societal pressures, genetic predisposition can contribute to binge eating patterns.
Symptoms of Binge Eating
Symptoms include eating unusually large quantities of food within a short timeframe, feeling out of control during eating episodes, eating rapidly, and continuing to eat even when not hungry. Individuals with binge eating disorder may also feel shame or guilt afterward, and may try to hide their behavior, further adding to emotional distress.
