Eating disorders can be as destructive and as painful any drug addiction. The only difference is that food is involved as opposed to drug use. An eating disorder is either a lack of food intake or eating way more then someone should eat. The Delray Center for Healing offers eating disorder treatment that takes this into account during treatment. Our options are tailored to this type of behavior.
The most common types of eating disorders seen at The Delray Center for Healing are anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating disorder. Anorexia is when you don’t eat enough food for the body to stay a normal healthy weight, and instead, you will lose fat and muscle in tandem to unhealthy levels. This usually happens when a person wants to reach a desired weight but takes things way too far. Far enough to even cause death eventually. Bulimia is the opposite. It’s when food intake increases to compensate for depression, anxiety, or other types of mental health disorders. Compulsive eating may also be characteristic. Compulsive overeating usually leads to weight gain and obesity, but not everyone who is obese is also a compulsive overeater.
The Delray Center for Healing treatment programs will provide eating disorder treatment options designed to combat these bad behaviors and lead you back on track to living and eating healthier. Binge eating disorder is when you eat as much as possible and then purge the contents of your stomach. This way, you don’t take in those calories and gain weight.
