I don't know what's wrong with me. I am not obese-5'5" and 123 lbs. I eat quickly and I usually lick my plate clean (figuratively speaking)
I am never full and I am constantly thinking and fantasizing about food. Last night after eating vegetable soup, grapes, rice, chicken, and corn, I ate four slices of pizza. Then I went to my friend's room and had cheez-its, cookies, and chocolate until my stomach hurt.
Just now, after eating a big dinner, I ate a pack of eight graham crackers, four smores, a small bag of cheez-its and a pack of peanut butter crackers.
I am not hungry anymore yet I still want more & more food. I feel so guilty yet so happy while I eat.
I have severe mental problems (I have body dysmorphic disorder and I hate the way I look and get depressed every day and I also have depersonalization disorder) that might contribute to the fact that I binge a lot. I am not overweight because I diet a lot.
Do I have compulsive binge eating disorder?
What do I do? HELP!!!

My older brother does the same thing. He says he does it because he's bored and it taste good. But, I suggest you talk to someone or find a new hobby.

It's good that you're recognizing that your relationship with food is unhealthy. I agree that you should see a mental health professional. It sounds like you could have an eating disorder but a trained person should make that diagnosis not a bunch of people off the street (like us!). That person can also help you with your other issues.
Good luck and remember there are lots of people out there with your issues. You're not alone!

Sounds like you know you have an ed, do you go to counseling? If not, seriously consider it bc/you have nothing to lose. Having an ed is like living in hell and get out while you can. Talk to your pdoc, therapist, parents, friends (assuming you have these people already and if not...get them) and let them know what is going on. If you don't you will be lonely and the problem will most likely just get worse. And also research COE and other eds like crazy until you figure yourself out. At least, you figure out whats going on. Learn from it.

Go to a psychiatrist and have yourself evaluated. The psychiatrist will give you a proper diagnosis and recommend some treatment options that can give you a better quality of life. Best wishes.

tell your mom to stop buying the **** your eating like junk food that is worthless, and the more u stop eating junk and stuff the less you'll want to. its same if you cant eat as much like for breakfast when you first wake up. take baby steps then youll be able to eat more, and in your case eat less.
