Binge eating disorder |
| |
 |
I am a 56-year old divorced mother, and my daughter went away to college last fall. A few weeks later, I lost my job, and have been only sporadically employed for almost a year.
I have had ongoing depression related to both of these losses, as well as insomnia and panic attacks. I have had a weight problem for most of my adult life, and recently have found myself eating continuously without feeling I have any control - to the point where I am full to the point of feeling sick. I recognize the symptoms, and am concerned that I am relapsing into binge eating, which I suffered from as a young woman.
Is this sort of relapse after many years common?
Are their treatment centers that will take my COBRA insurance? |

A female friend, who is 5' 2 "tall and weighed 103 pounds, has lost 20 pounds over 2 years. Her main complaint is burning in her GI tract. She believes it is reflux and gastritis, and her GI doctors call it visceral hypersensitivity.
This burning and a lack of response to traditional GI therapies have thrown her into a deep depression, acute anxiety and insomnia. She is afraid to eat because of the subsequent burning.
Nothing has worked for her. Is this an eating disorder? How do you get someone to eat if they are so afraid of pain from eating? |

I have been suffering from depression and an eating disorder for a couple of years. Although, I have been in treatment for the eating disorder and have made some progress, the depression is still debilitating and feels endless. Some professionals have told me that anti-depressants are not effective if you are at a low weight.
Has this been studied and do you believe it to be true? At what BMI do anti-depressants work effectively? |
