Anorexia, Bulemia, Binge eating and Eating Addictions
|
I helped a young woman deal with her eating disorders at one time. While she developed the disorder and/or addiction, i.e. the addiction was not hereditary. The woman would often vomit after putting her fingers in her mouth. She had an inability to control her eating habits, yet when she ate, she would often feel guilt and use harmful tactics to resolve the issue. This action will tear up the stomach muscles, which in turn can lead to death, i.e. the digestive system is affected immediately and successively. The girl managed to drop more than 100 pounds, still she looked lifeless, and her problems continued, i.e. she had to continue the process of vomiting to control her inability to stop eating. Some people suffering eating disorders feel they are overweight. At times, the person is misconceived, i.e. the person is at a level weight. The person will resort to eating addictions to lose weight, or else the person might overeat because of impulse. Impulse is an inspiration, or motivation that forces our body forward, communicating behaviors. Impulses if not controlled will cause a person to act on sudden spontaneous thought or inclinations, inciting to unpremeditated action. When the impulses are imbalanced, a person often falls into the hands of addiction. Impulse then becomes a compulsive reaction, which can lead to obsession or compulsive-obsessive disorders. This is the problem with most persons addicted to any drug, alcohol, nicotine, eating, gambling, etc. Still, the impulse problem is not the only problem leading these people to addictions. A person that engages in wrongful thoughts, or participates in wrongful actions, activities, etc is often vulnerable to addictions. Bulimics then is an abnormal and ongoing craving for foods. This is a serious eating disorder, which often targets females. The addiction is characterized by overeating compulsively, which is usually following self-induced vomiting, through finger input or laxative, or diuretic abuse. The person often feels guilt and depression after enduring a bulimic attack. Anorexia is the loss of appetite, more specifically a prolonged void of food. Anorexia falls under the anorexia nervosa title, since it is a serious disorder, which includes eating behaviors. The addiction targets woman and young adults, and is often characterized by pathological feelings or fears of gaining weight. This fear leads to defective eating patterns, malnutrition, and extreme weight loss. |
