I've also experienced compulsive overeating. And gained a few stone, and after that I stopped eating.

I'd have to say bulimia. It doesn't do anything except hurt you mentally and physically. All the weight is quickly gained back.

I suffer with bulimia, it is so draining physically and mentaly like alot of people have said.

2bh, i feel like i suffer more from compulsive overeating, and just bring myself to throw it up after.

Anorexia to me seems like the most psychologically troubled disease, who probably need the most help. The fact they are literally starving themselves to death shows to me such little grasp on reality, bulimics and compulsive overeaters at least eat, even thought their habits are still unhealthy.

Compulsive overeating seems bad because there is weight gain involved(a negative attribute)but for me I would prefer to suffer with that. If I saw a compulsiver overeater and an anorexic, or if for instance I was a doctor and two people came in saying they suffered from anorexia and overeating, I would be inclined to believe the anorexic needed a greater degree of help.

And it's probably the most life threatening, I would prefer to suffer with bulimia or overeating in my opinion than anorexia. of course, this is just my opinion.
