[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. Unlike the eating disorder of bingeing and purging, where the person induces vomiting or ingests large amounts of laxatives in order to get rid of the food, bingeing is a psychological disorder that manifests itself by loss of control. Food, being the commodity of which the sufferer has lost complete control, becomes more of an enemy than an inanimate object. Rather new to the long list of established eating disorders, binge eating is said to affect millions of Americans. Persons afflicted with this disorder are not immediately recognized, because they are quite masterful at hiding their actions. The writer discusses binge eating disorder.
