Background: Overweight is a growing public health global epidemic that affects over 600 million people worldwide and leads to the development of multiple metabolic, mechanical, and mental health disorders associated with fatality. Binge eating disorder (BED) is a kind of eating entity associated with excessive weight. Nearly, 80% of those with BED have higher risk of psychopathology, including mood, anxiety, and sleep problems. Anxiety has repeatedly been associated with overweight and eating disorders. So, the aim of this study was to find the prevalence rate of state trait anxiety and binge eating disorder in overweight individuals. Method: A self-administered questionnaire was prepared which consisted of survey related questions from State Trait Anxiety Inventory and Binge Eating Scale. Total 51 individuals were selected on the basis of selection criteria and the questionnaire was distributed amongst them. Data analysis using scientific calculation showed that there was high prevalence rate of high level of state anxiety, moderate level of trait anxiety with moderate level of binge eating in overweight individuals. Conclusion: The study supported the alternative hypothesis and indicated that there was significant prevalence of state anxiety, trait anxiety as well as binge eating disorder in overweight individuals.
