(SED-NOS) Because this isn't a preoccupation with self image and people with it aren't overeating, avoiding or purging food. Consciously anyway. I asked my mother and she said although it says eating disorder in it's name, it technically isn't, it's a type of sleep disorder. I'm writing up a thing about eating disorders and I don't know whether to put it on the list or not!?

Clearly, the subject has some sort of a want for food, hence the sleep eating, but it's also a sleep disorder. That's what I kind of thought, it's just hard to relate it to my eating disorder thing noraa Posted at 8:46 am on Dec. 29, 2008 I'd count it as both.
