A member asked:
Awful about myself and made myself throw up. does this count as an eating disorder, and if so, what is it called? what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Only if persistent : It is only an eating disorder if it is a persistent pattern of behavior. One episode does not mean that you have an eating disorder. If it persists however please see a psychiatrist who deals in eating disorders and a psychologist as well. Best wishes.
