"IT'S NOT WHAT YOU ARE EATING, IT'S WHAT'S EATING YOU"

If you or someone you love has an eating disorder YOU ARE NOT ALONE. Between 5-10 million Americans have ANOREXIA OR BULIMIA and another 24 million suffer with BINGE EATING DISORDERS. Knowing that other people have experienced what you are going through and have gotten better with treatment will provide you with a sense of hope.

EATING DISORDERS are potentially a life threatening illness, which are simultaneously psychological, and physical in nature. They are characterized by a range of abnormal and harmful eating behaviors such as BULIMIA, ANOREXIA, and RESTRICTIVE EATING, which are accompanied and motivated by unhealthy beliefs, perceptions, and expectations concerning eating, weight and body shape.

Co-occuring Disorders: Dual Disorders Treatment

Co-occuring refers to an individual who is suffering with more than one disorder at the time of admission. For example, very often, an individual who is struggling with eating disorders may exhibit problems with chemical dependency such as addiction to speed or cocaine for weight loss, or drinking on an empty stomach as a means of suppressing the appetite. These situations require more comprehensive treatment modalities.

Dual Diagnosis refers to the presence of both mental illness (such as depression, anxiety, distorted body image, etc.), as well as an eating disorder. Most people can achieve full recovery only when all of the Co-occurring disorders are treated simultaneously. Integrated dual diagnosis treatment offers more insight, skills and knowledge for the client in order to achieve a higher success rate.
