binges

Goes all out

Binges is the plural noun and third-person singular verb form of binge.

A binge is a period of unrestrained indulgence in something, most often eating, drinking alcohol, or consuming media: Her weekend binges left her feeling sluggish on Monday.

When someone binges, they engage in this kind of excess: He binges true crime documentaries every time a new series drops.

The word often carries connotations of loss of control or later regret, though binge-watching has normalized the term somewhat.
