The reality is [in] any emotional situation, a compulsive eater eats or an alcoholic drinks. What people misunderstand is that when you're a compulsive overeater, you don't just eat when things are bad. You eat when you feel anything.

Jeff Garlin

I'm a compulsive overeater. It's something I need help to work on.

Conchata Ferrell

As a teen, I was both anorexic and bulimic.

Alanis Morissette

I was anorexic-bulimic when I was 16-17. It was a top secret that time, but these things always are.

Peta Wilson

I'm not skinny for the wrong reasons. It's not because I'm bulimic or anorexic or doing drugs. Compared to a lot of actresses my age, I'm actually overweight.

Lindsay Lohan

That went on for a long time: telling various tales from my experience being anorexic and bulimic, and having people say, 'You've got to write this; you are a writer,' and me not knowing how to approach the material.

Marti Noxon

The body is like an elaborate metaphor. One may be able to taste and not swallow, like the anorexic, or to swallow and not integrate, like the bulimic or obese.

Marion Woodman

I was bulimic and anorexic for a while, just hating my body. As an actress, I was never thin enough, never pretty enough. My boobs weren't big enough.

I am, uh... a 6 foot tall woman, I feel like I'm a healthy size, I'm not anorexic; and I feel that people who aren't anorexic are punished... for not being anorexic.

Kristen Johnston

I am, uh ... a 6 foot tall woman, I feel like I'm a healthy size, I'm not anorexic; and I feel that people who aren't anorexic are punished ... for not being anorexic.

Kristen Johnston

People tell me that I should eat more, but they don't know me: I eat a lot. It's pretty unpleasant that people assume every model is anorexic and bulimic.

Elizabeth Jagger

I think I look very healthy. You've already seen what I've eaten, so I couldn't be anorexic, and I wouldn't throw up if you paid me $1,000, so I'm not bulimic. Okay, for $1,000 I would stick my finger down my throat, but throwing up is the worst thing in the world.

Courteney Cox

I couldn't be anorexic because I like food too much, and I couldn't be bulimic because I hate throwing up too much.

Natalie Portman

I must be an anorexic because an anorexic looks in the mirror and sees a fat person.

Jo Brand

Actually,I am a failed anorexic. I have anorexic thinking, but I can't seem to muster the behavoir

Carrie Fisher

I was in my mid-40s. I was a bulimic, and I realized if I continue with this addiction of mine, I will not be able to continue doing my life. The older you get the more damage it does; it takes longer to recover from a binge. And it was very hard.

Jane Fonda
