Besides going to a doctor, is there any other way to find out if you have eating disorder?



Besides going to a doctor, is there any other way to find out if you have eating disorder?

There are different reasons why people have eating disorders. Some may have one if they think they're fat, and they want to lose weight, and others may have one if they want a sense of control in their life, and in result they starve theirself and don't eat, or throwup. Also, if someone's really stressed/depressed and just don't eat because of it you could also have an eating disorder. If you see that you're losing wieght rapidly, and then once you eat something, you gain weight really quicky, that could also be an indicator. Source(s): myself/friends
look online for the symptoms of a disorder..and if you think you have them...then I guess you could self diagnose...but that is never a good idea. Go to a eating disorder clinic, something that isn't doctor based.
Good luck.

Are you consistently losing or gaining weight (not losing AND gaining weight)
if you gotta ask....
You'll usually know if you have an eating disorder or not. If you "think" you may have one, you're probably in denial. If your behaviors match the same behaviors under the criteria for an ED than you most likely have one.
To be honest a seeing a Doctor is probably the best. However, even medical professionals have a difficult time diagnosing a eating disorder. The best bet is you think you have a eating disorder then you probably do. After all, who knows your body better than you. Good Luck.
