I know that I am starting to show signs when I feel so hungry that my stomach hurts but I have no deisre to eat, not even to make it feel better. I also know when I start looking at fad diets and obsessing over eating "healthier". I also go the opposite way... when I start eating junk food like crazy and eating to the point that my stomach hurts from being over full. With me it is like a weird rollercoaster and I never know which way I am going to be until it starts. When my clothes get too big and I obsess over weighing myself or I feel like I can't stomach the thought of food, it nauseates me to even think about eating.

Yes, eating disorder can be related to over eating or under eating. Sometimes even when we are not hungry but feel the need to stuff ourselves with food, that can be a sign of overeating. And with overeating you can feel a bit heavy , lethargic and drained of energy. Similarly in the case of undereating you may not feel like having food at times, And in that case also the body will show you the signs, You may feel like your sugar levels are low, or it will also be accompanied by nausea. When you feel that you are having an eating disorder its better to seek help, so that your lifestyle can be rectified and you may reach the balance that you are seeking.
