Symptoms: Exercise bulimia involves bingeing followed by extreme exercising to burn off the calories. Some signs: being anxious or angry if you can't work out, obsessing over your weight, being so preoccupied with exercise that you miss important events in your life in order to work out, constantly weighing yourself and obsessing over your work-outs. Psychotherapy can help you recover from this condition
