Binge Eating Disorder: Formation and Impact

Abstract

This article provides a detailed understanding of binge eating disorder (BED), its causes, symptoms, and treatment options. A serious condition called binge eating disorder can cause both physical and psychological discomfort. A summary of past and current literature describes the symptoms, etiology of binge eating disorder, social influence, treatment, and future research directions. A serious mental disease known as binge eating disorder is characterized by frequent episodes with binge eating. A sense of lack of control over its food is a common factor in binge eating episodes, which are frequently accompanied by emotions of shame, guilt, and anxiety. The disorder is related to several psychological and physical health problems and can significantly negatively impact the quality of life. Binge eating disorder is assumed to be the result of a complex combination of psychological, biological, and societal factors, while the specific origin is unknown. Treatment for binge eating disorder typically involves a combination of psychotherapy, medication, and lifestyle changes. Finally, the paper discusses suggestions for future research directions, exploring whether social norms influence the incidence of binge eating disorders. This article suggests that future research should focus on how social norms can influence the development of binge eating disorders to develop more effective interventions.
