Would you consider this an eating disorder?

I occasionally have crash diets, go for days without eating Carbs, that wont work so then i'll not eat for a few days, then i'll pick at food or occassionally have meals and throw it up.

This lasts a few weeks, then sometimes i'll be OK for a few weeks and still watch what i eat, but eat healthy.

i am 168cm weighing 57kgs, although i am at my heavier stage having put on 4 kgs in 3 months (the winter coat) During summer i generally weigh 54kgs. My goal is 50Kg, i hope to get to this gial weight by the end of summer.

yes i would consider it and eating disorder...it sounds like binge-eating disorder..where you use crash diets and then you pig out when they don't work for you and then you feel ashamed for eating so much and you throw it all back up...email me if you want to know more

You definately have a problem. . . go get some professional help before it becomes more difficult or impossible to correct! Good luck and God Bless you!
I think you're hanging on to media induced propaganda that tells you what a woman should look like. There's nothing wrong with you. You'll be just fine. Just start a healthy diet and regular excercise and everything will be just fine. Can ya dig it?
yes this is an eating disorder. eating should not consume your thoughts or alter your life style to this extent
yea...it is an eating disorder ...your only hurting yourself and looking to thin is really gross...believe me noone is attracted to a walking corpse....plus throwing up and starving yourself is a horrible way to loose weight.....if you wanna loose weight eat regulary and eat healthy food and sign up for a gym
Yes, what you have is some form of an eating disorder. I hope after reading these answers, you will seek medical attention and regain your health. I wish you all the best!
Eating disorders are a progressive disease just like alcoholism. It can become very dangerous and may become life threatening. Purging causes severe dental damage as the disease gets worse. You can rupture blood vessels in your esophagus when purging.
If you think you have an eating disorder then you probably do. From your symptoms I would definitely say you do.
Those who suffer from eating disorders use this to gain control in their lives and as an emotional coping mechanism.
It is a very torturous disease for the person suffering.
If you are in a lot of emotional pain or cannot take stress in your life please seek counseling. This is a deep rooted emotional disease.
Some people choose drugs or alcohol and some people choose food or all of the above to cope. Life today is very stressful and we are not all superwomen or supermen.
If you are afraid to ask for help start getting information by reading about the effects of the disease. There are some support groups on line too if you can find them.
Good luck and God bless!
