用法筆記

Distinguish from bulimia nervosa: binge eating disorder does not involve compensatory behaviours such as self-induced vomiting, laxative misuse, or excessive exercise. It is also distinct from occasional overeating — a clinical diagnosis requires episodes at least once a week for three months, accompanied by marked distress and a sense of lost control.

💡binge eating disorder is a clinical condition involving recurring loss-of-control episodes and significant distress, not simply eating too much on special occasions.
