Eating Disorder Treatment

Anorexia and bulimia are two life-threatening illnesses that are often left either untreated or mistreated.  If you are suffering with either of these eating disorders you understand, even if others don’t, that it is no longer a matter of willpower or even whether you wish to stop hurting yourself.  It is a dark compulsion, inner voices convincing you that you are overweight, “unpretty”, or unworthy of love and attention.

Treatment for these eating disorders can come in the form of medical intervention (to help prevent purging), cognitive therapy, support groups, exercise, positive channeling, and support groups.  You are not alone in this illness.  It affects millions of young girls, women, boys, and men across the country and world.  The obsession with appearances is perpetuated across a wide variety of channels and social media.  It is normal to worry about your appearance.  It is unhealthy to hurt or harm yourself.  You know this.  This is why you need to take steps now to recover. 

If you or someone you love has been affected by this dangerous affliction know, first, that you are not alone, and, second, that there is an abundance of helpful resources to get you back on track.  You don’t have to continue to suffer the shame and physical effects of eating disorders.  Don’t wait for your condition to progress to the point of forced hospitalization or permanent damage.  Seek help now.
