BehaveNet® Clinical Capsule™:

mental disorder: binge eating disorder (BED)


This eating disorder is characterized by rapid uncontrolled eating of so much food as to lead to physical discomfort, even when not particularly hungry. Bingers may eat alone to avoid embarrassment, but binges may be followed by feelings of guilt, disgust, and self-loathing.
