When you hear about eating disorders, there are basically three types mentioned: anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and bulimia nervosa.

* Anorexia nervosa:

When someone has anorexia nervosa, they usually think they are overweight, even if they are underweight. If you notice that this person is just keeping weight, eating a small amount of food and picking certain foods very well, you can identify this mental illness.

Anorexia nervosa can lead to menstrual cessation, loss of skin integrity, loss of bone, and even increased risk of heart disease. It has the highest mortality rate among all mental disorders and is not just due to complications related to hunger. In extreme cases, anorexia may be the cause of suicide.

* bulimia nervosa:

When someone has bulimia nervosa, they usually eat a lot of food and cannot save themselves. After that, they felt very guilty about what they were doing, just forcing vomiting. Others go even further: they practice too much exercise, take diuretics and laxatives, or both.

A certain saving problem in identifying bulimia nervosa is that these people usually maintain weight. So, unless you are around them for a long time during the day, you may not even know they have this problem.

* Overeating:

Bulimia is associated with bulimia nervosa. The difference is that when someone sucks from overeating, they just eat without any control. But they won't vomit or take any medication. Therefore, they are usually obese or overweight.
