recently i've developed some eating disorders. the sight of a supposedly-good-tasting food makes me nauseous and irritable. even when i'm very hungry i will feel the same and would go for fruits instead. this is a weird thing because i loved to eat nad i do not have any misconceptions about my weight....i think i'm perfectly healthy and do not need to lose weight...but food just seem to irk me rather than appeal to me now....it's been a month or so...please help!

Anorexia means not eating...bulimia is the classic binge purge...Are you still eating...? do you feel healthy?...if you do not get over this soon, maybe see a therapist before it gets worse and you get out of control.

Well as a long time suffer of both, you do not RECENTLY developedd these diseases. You must be self-diagnosing, because you have neither. Just because food makes you nauseous doesn't mean you have a eating disorder. Your body/stomach may just not be able to handle certain kinds of foods, or you may have sensitivity to the vitamins in the food. Please see a physician. If you do not have a poor body image and you have no desire to change your body, you can only develope the disease by starvation and poor nutrition and bulimia is a vomiting disease where you vomit after meals, beginning on purpose and then developing into involuntary. You should be checked for irritations in the stomach (ulcers, cancer, etc.) and possibly in the colon, gall bladder etc. Check for allergies as well. But I can honestly say from suffering from both, gradually from a teen to adult, I do not believe you suffer from either.

Above all, see your Dr. You most likely do not have the following but I thought you should be aware of my experience: I had similar feelings as you concerning certain foods when in my twenties. I could not tolerate the smell of meat being cooked. Other foods such as vegetables salads and fruit fell to the category of disgusting foods. I had no desire to eat anything. My skin started to have a pale yellowish color. A simple blood screen done at my Dr's office showed Infectious Hepatitis. Nearly two weeks in a hospital in quarantine, massive doses of antibiotics and slowly I began to tolerate food again. I did weigh your information concerning Anorexia Nervosia and Bulimia. My daughter was Anorexic while in college. And your conceptions about food do not match. If your a serious athlete who competes in running weight training swimming etc. and find yourself consumed by it you may be headed for the outer edges if becoming Anorexic or Bulimic. Please see your Doc. ASAP. Good Luck to you!

If you don't have a problem with your looks, weight or anything like that, it is neither Bulimia nor Anorexia.
Its probably just a face, nothing to worry about, but if you feel worried (as there could be some sort of stomach disease behind) you should of course se a physician.

Neither. Cause one of the manifestations of anorexia and bulimia are eating disorders whether you have a self generated weigth loss (anorexia) or having periods of eating excessively and then puke them all out to prevent weight gain ( bulimia). In your case it could be something else. Try pregnancy test. if not go to a hospital.

Your body is telling you something's not right. Try and do a whole body cleanse to detoxify your system. You can also try a juice fast for several days. We are exposed to lots of toxins everyday and sometimes they take tolls on our systems. Cleansing at least a few times a year helps rejuvenate. What you are feeling may have nothing to do with eating disorder. Good luck.

You are not Bulimic if you do not make yourself throw up.
You say you don't want to lose weight so it's unlikely its anorexia..as that is about never being thin enough ... and being in control of food...
you could be ill.. so i would definately say see a doctor about this..

Neither. You're probably just not hungry at the time. You probably are perfectly healthy, you're just losing your big appetite... I think... Hope everything turns out well for you!

Are you a woman and are you sure you're not pregnant? That's the way I was when I was pregnant.
