Techcnically, it is. Once you get used to not eating, or the bulimia, or just eating in general, it becomes a habit. It eats at your mind and morphs your body image.
If you're an anorexic, no matter how much weight you lose, you're just no thin enough. You never will be goodenough. so you think, hmmm...
maybe 5 pounds.
lose that, and look in the mirror.
Maybe ten.
Lose more.
It's a cycle. You just keep getting thinner and thinner until,
Whoops.
You're gone.
If you are bulimic, you eat. and eat. and eat.
Until you feel a sudden guilt for what you have done,
so you drag yourself to the bathroom, lift up the seat, stick your fingers down your throat
over and over and over
Until you spit blood.
It can mess with your stomach lining, but you can't help it. You just have to eat so much. You have to purge it.
It's just so impossible to stop.
But you don't wanna tell anybody because you feel you will look crazy...
An eating disorder is an addiction, sort of
No. But she did have an addiction to drugs. And I believe struggled with an eating disorder.
I believe you're thinking of either binge eating disorder or overeating disorder. There's a difference, but you didn't include details so I can't tell you which you're referring to.
Binge eating disorder might describe one type of overeating.

This is considered to be the eating disorder pica and is highly dangerous. You can get very ill and need to see a doctor for treatment.
An addiction disorder
Most likely it is not a true addiction and is more characteristic of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder... A true addiction has a basis in some kind of physiological response.
It seems as though you are referring to bulimia. However, bulimia is characterized by binge eating followed by purging (throwing up). Binge eating alone would probably just be considered food addiction.
