there's many different types of eating disorders, along with those which don't fit into a certain category; those are known as EDNOS (eating disorder not specified).
the main three eating disorders are anorexia, bulimia and BED (binge-eating disorder), but there is also CED (compulsive exercise disorder), anorexia binge-purge type, Orthorexia nervosa (eating only 'health' foods) and Pica (eating inedible substances, among others.
There is also other types which medically fall into the EDNOS catogory, like 'chew and spit' and purging disorder, as the boundaries of eating disorders can easily become blurred.
