This is just a sample list of the symptoms common with most eating disorders. Specific eating disorders can be identified on other symptoms exclusive to the condition. For example, anorexia symptoms include:

  • Dramatic weight loss
  • Dressing in layers to cover such weight loss
  • Making frequent comments about being fat

For bulimia, you may be dealing with symptoms such as:

  • Calluses on the back of your hands or knuckles, common with self-induced vomiting
