What is Binge Eating Disorder?

Binge eating disorder is a very serious eating disorder that requires focused treatment to overcome, especially if it is accompanied by co-occurring disorders.

Binge Eating Disorder Signs, Symptoms, and Causes

Binge eating disorder is a disease in which individuals suffer frequent episodes of eating a large amount of food, typically to the point of discomfort. It is also characterized by feelings of shame and guilt following a binging session, as well as the feeling of a loss of control while it is occurring. Unlike other eating disorder patients, people with binge eating disorder usually don’t compensate for the overeating (by purging, for example). This is a serious eating disorder that can be life-threatening. Fortunately, there is a treatment for binge eating.

Like other eating disorders such as bulimia and anorexia, binge eating disorder is a medical condition that can result in critical and irreparable health complications. It can be difficult to gain control over binge eating but your physical, mental, and emotional health depends on it.

The professionals at Rosewood’s binge eating disorder treatment center, we have more than a decade of experience with treatment for eating disorders—and the emotional and physical pain that come with it. We take a non-judgmental approach that is holistic and personalized for the unique needs of every patient.

Rosewood Uses an Individualized 5-Goal Process for Binge Eating Disorder Treatment

Our approach at Rosewood is always to personalize each patient’s binge eating disorder treatment plan in ways that respond to their individual needs. That said, our overarching goals for each patient’s binge eating treatment program focus on a common set of imperatives that each patient arrives at in their own unique way. These include:

  • Ensure the patient is medically stabilized, at a weight level that’s medically appropriate; provide any necessary detoxification under careful medical supervision
  • Develop a comprehensive binge eating treatment plan with input from our multidisciplinary team as well as the patient and family members.
  • Work with the patient to detect and deal with any psychiatric illness and psychological challenges associated with the binge eating or co-occurring disorder(s).
  • Focus on behaviors and thinking processes that impede progress toward lasting recovery.
  • Proactively prepare each patient with comprehensive aftercare plans that reduce the chance of relapse.

Who is Mainly Affected by Binge Eating Disorder?

Binge eating disorder is the most common eating disorder in the United States. It affects women slightly more often than man—based on estimates indicating that 60% of people suffering from the disorder are women and 40% are men. It is a common misconception that only women suffer from eating disorders. For women, binge eating is common in early adulthood, while for men it usually occurs in midlife. Binge eating is strongly correlated with psychological conditions such as depression and anxiety. Many struggling with the disorder also suffer mental and emotional health issues. People from all cultural backgrounds can be affected by this disorder. Contact our binge eating treatment centers today for information on treatment.
