American Psychiatric Association

The American Psychiatric Association Washington, D.C, 1994, prescribes the criteria for binge eating disorder in the DSM IV.

It also gives the required information with a help line no.- 866-575-8178. The official website also provides an online assessment for the needy. American Psychiatric Association says that still research is still on and the list of the exact criteria for the diagnosis of binge eating disorder is still under development. Once the complete information is thoroughly obtained, diagnosis and treatment would become a lot easier.
