• anorexia nervosa is a condition marked by restricting how much food you eat

• bulimia nervosa involves binge eating and purging or non-purging (fasting or obsessively exercising) behaviors

• binge eating disorder involves eating large amounts of food and feeling like you can’t stop

• avoidant restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) is a condition that involves restricting the amount and type of food you eat

• pica involves eating things that aren’t food such as paint

• rumination disorder is a condition marked by rechewing, re-swallowing, or spitting out your food

The type of eating disorder you have will determine the type of treatment that’s best for you.
