Binge Eating Disorder (BED) Symptoms

Binge eating disorder (BED) is characterized by frequent overeating (bingeing) – at least once a week for three months – combined with a lack of control, intense feelings of distress and three or more of the following behaviors:

• Eating more rapidly than normal
• Eating until feeling uncomfortably full
• Eating large amounts of food even when not feeling physically hungry
• Eating alone because of feelings of embarrassed stemming from how much one eats
• Feeling disgusted with oneself, depressed or guilty after eating
