My Eating Disorders

EDNOS are a series of eating disorders that share certain symptoms of established eating disorders, yet not all of the known symptoms of a particular eating disorder.  Because of this EDNOS are hard to categorize.  An example of of EDNOS is that all the signs of Anorexia Nervosa are met except that, despite substantial weight loss, the individual’s current weight is in the normal range or all of the criteria for Bulimia Nervosa are met except binges occur at a frequency of less than twice a week or for a duration of less than 3 months.  Because EDNOS is hard to catch one must be very aware if they suspect a person is developing an eating disorder.
