Yup.. There are compulsive eating disorders and binge eating (with or without the presence of purging afterwards)... Maybe sometimes its not so much of a "disorder" as a "habit" that needs to be taken care of. It is something that needs to be counseled through, not so much medicated--there is usually some psychological thing behind it.

Yes it is a type of eating disorder. Treatment is usually like therapy or something...search food addicition.
