What is a common characteristic of both bulimics and anorexics?
Both anorexics and bulimics are cautious about how much they eat around other people and what kinds of foods they ingest. They do not like to eat around other people (secrecy is the name of the game). They both starve themselves for long periods of time (bulimics just make up for it by stuffing it all down later). They might appear bloated, but that is mostly bulimics due to water retention so I suppose it depends on how much the anorexic is vomiting.

Can tourette's cause compulsive lying?
Tourette's syndrome primarily involves involuntary motor and vocal tics, and it does not inherently cause compulsive lying. However, individuals with Tourette's may sometimes engage in behaviors that could be perceived as lying, such as making impulsive comments or statements due to their condition. It's essential to differentiate between the neurological aspects of Tourette's and the psychological elements that contribute to behavior like compulsive lying. If someone with Tourette's is exhibiting compulsive lying, it may be due to other underlying psychological factors rather than the syndrome itself.
What is the possible treatment for compulsive eating disorder?

What is the difference between excessive and compulsive internet use?
Excessive internet use refers to spending an inordinate amount of time online, often at the expense of other activities or responsibilities, but it may not necessarily involve a feeling of loss of control. Compulsive internet use, on the other hand, is characterized by a persistent urge to engage in online activities despite negative consequences, reflecting a lack of control and often accompanying psychological distress. While both can lead to negative impacts on daily life, compulsive use is more closely associated with addictive behaviors.
Virgo and Virgo?
They can get on each other's nerves with their compulsive perfectionistic attitudes.
