Compulsive Overeating Disorder

Dear BeingGirl Experts,

I think I may have an eating disorder: compulsive overeating. I have almost all the symptoms. If I told my mom, she wouldn't believe me, and there is no one else who is an adult that I am close to that I can tell. What should I do?

Mimi,

Why don't you do some reading on compulsive overeating? Searching the Internet for more information will help you understand more about compulsive overeating as well as other eating disorders—www.something-fishy.org is a site you may find helpful. If you are still convinced you need help when you have done your research, talk with your mother, school counselor or school nurse. Let the adult you speak with know what you have learned and why you believe you need some help.

Hope this is helpful,

Your BeingGirl Experts

@micki mouse roxx8 it really depends on your height, bonemass, and body structure. I know people who were 70 pounds in 7th grade, and where perfectly healthy.
