Eating Disorders

What It Is

Eating disorders and overeating involve more than food — they're tied to emotions, stress, and self-image. They may show up as binge eating, restrictive behaviors, or emotional eating, and can affect both physical and mental health.

Common Symptoms

• Eating in secret or feeling shame after meals
• Frequent overeating or binge episodes
• Restricting food intake or skipping meals
• Preoccupation with food, weight, or body image
• Emotional eating tied to stress, sadness, or anxiety
• Physical issues like weight changes, digestive discomfort, or fatigue
