Types of Eating Disorders
Eating disorders can be complex and can be difficult to fit into distinct categories. If you have some but not all of the diagnostic symptoms of an eating disorder or combine behavioural characteristics of different eating disorders, you may be described as having an Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified - EDNOS. This does not make your condition any less serious and you should still seek to receive help and support.
At Syeda, we do not "label" you into a particular eating disorder and do not ask for your BMI (Body Mass Index) or weight, at assessment we ask questions around how things are for you at the moment, what your eating habits are like and how are services may be of help to you.
