Is one born with an eating disorder?!


Question: Is one born with an eating disorder!?
I am a compulsive eater, but I only started to really have eating problems when I turned 13!. But I was wondering if we are born with it, and if maybe it shows up when we hit puberty!. Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
i was bulimic!. It isnt something you are born with, just happens,and usually it is after a traumatic event, like rape or teen life in general!.
I was put down alot from my mom, because of my being overweight, and i couldnt take it!.
Come to find out, my aunts on my daddy's side, several of them, are anorexic/ bulimic!.
It can be dealt with, but I hate to tell you this: it can never be cured!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Nah, not when you were born, a little after that!.
It has a lot to do with psycology!.!.Babies that aren't held often tend to have eating disorders when they are older for a number of reasons!.!.Surley there is a psycological explaination for over eating as well!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

When you are a teenager 12-18 your eating can become very intense as there are changes in hormonal levels so sometimes you will be eating a lot and your body becomes bigger and at other times it seems as if you have barely eaten a thing and your body feels thinner!. Its normal!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No!. I have/had bulimia !. It started because I was being put down all the time!. I started hating myself and hated getting picked on!. Every time I ate something I threw it up!. I had this problem for years!. I got help for it!. Eating disorders are mental honey!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No i dont think you are born with it!. I think for some eating disorders you learn to use it as a control or a comfort mechanism!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't think we are born into it, society forces us to be a certain "thing" if we can compete and get what people expect, we feel crap, and go get comfort - food!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well, sometimes it can be hereditary, so sort of yes, but not always!. Www@Answer-Health@Com
