Eating Disorder Test

If you’re concerned about your eating habits, your relationship with food, or how you feel about your body, this test can help you get a clearer picture of where you are right now.

Our Eating Disorder Test has been developed using EAT-26, a widely used questionnaire that can help you reflect on your relationship with food, weight and eating. It takes about five minutes to complete.

It doesn’t provide a diagnosis, and it isn’t a replacement for speaking with a qualified healthcare professional. However, it can give you a clearer sense of where you are right now, and whether it might be worth having a conversation with a specialist.

Your answers are calculated instantly in your browser. Nothing you enter here is saved, or sent anywhere, including to ABBI Clinic.

Part 1 of 2

The next 26 statements describe thoughts, feelings and habits some people have around food. For each one, choose how often it applies to you. There are no right or wrong answers, so try to answer as honestly as you can.

 

Part 1 of 2
Question 1 / 26

I am terrified about being overweight.

Part 2 of 2

Just five more questions. These ask about specific behaviours over the past six months. Again, please answer as honestly as you can.

 

 

 

Part 2 of 2
Question 1 / 5

In the past six months, have you gone on eating binges where you felt you might not be able to stop?

This check-in is a starting point for reflection, not a diagnostic or clinical assessment. A diagnosis can only be made by a qualified healthcare professional. You do not need to wait for a particular score before asking for help. If you are finding things difficult right now, please speak to your GP. If you or someone you know is in immediate danger, call 999, or contact the Samaritans free, any time, on 116 123.
