Eating Disorder??
Joe:
latley we’ve been loosing a lot of weight ( not on purpose) but when I saw that we had gained two pounds I took a bunch of Laxatives to get all the food we had eatin out of our system. And then we lost four pounds.
Since then I’ve been trying to take laxatives as often as possible so we don’t gain weight. But I don’t actually know if it’s an eating disorder.
@SpecialSystem Eating disorders are serious medical conditions, and at 7 Cups we are not allowed to give medical advice. For advice about any medical condition it is important to consult your doctor. Information from the Internet can be very misleading.
However, I did check the official (DSM-5-TR) definitions of eating disorders, and they do mention "fear of gaining weight" and "the misuse of laxatives", both of which you have also mentioned.
