Honestly im not sure if i have an eating disorder.I have always eatin a lot but over the years my mom started telling that i was binge eating everyday but i didnt really listen to her.Last year I started this cycle of binge eating then making myself throw up because all the food i ate made me feel sick and on ocasion i would work out excesesivly to.This only happened between a span of 2 months or so though.I realized that this wasnt normal and was able to stop making myself throw up and I havent for about 4 months but I have been thinking about throwing up again even though I know I shouldnt.I have not gone to a doctor and I can kind of control it so I figured that i only had a minor disordor but im unsure.Is this normal?

i'm sorry to hear you were going through this! I can say that it sounds like it could be from anxiety/emotional eating? It is normal for some to have this issue, though - it is of course not a healthy solution to purge or binge eat. It's good that you recognized it and your thought pattern! be proud of your strength and how far you've come! ♥️ !! Sending best wishes your way!
