Um, switching EDs? - March 4th 2010, 07:56 AM

I've noticed that ever since my eating problems began, it's not uncommon for my body to switch through them. For example, it started out as EDNOS. A few months later it was strictly binge eating, which progressed into exercise bulimia over the course of a year. Now I've noticed through the fatigue brought on by such excess amounts of exercise, I'm starting cycles of binging/fasting which I've heard is another type of non-purging bulimia. I'm definitely not in control of it; I don't just wake up and say, "Hey, I think I'll try out this disorder today." It just gradually becomes something new. I'm much more accustomed to hearing stories of people stuck with one specific ED for years... I guess it just makes me feel really strange. Is this common?


Waitin' for my ruca.
