 Eating Disorder Symptoms And Treatment

 

The Eating disorder picture has got aggravated in the modern life style. Many job requirements and competition have demanded a good looking personality irrespective of gender. The women are the most affected category because of this high expectation on their structure. People have become more beauty and healthy conscious. This drives them into dangerous eating habits which ultimately results in eating disorders.

The over consciousness  about their health, body weight and shape drives people to put unnecessary restriction on the amount of food they intake. People with eating disorder symptoms attach medical and psychological factors to their eating habits and they are constantly thinking of their health, body and shape.

According the National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders, about eight million Americans are having eating disorders symptoms. The female population constitutes the bulk of the percentage and the 13 to 30 age group forms the 90% of the female population. Males are not an exemption to the eating disorders and it affects male and both younger and old. It is highly alarming that the eating disorder symptom develops even by age twenty. The duration of eating disorder may last from few months to many years.

No racial group is exempted from this eating disorders.

Eating Disorders Factors

Modern life style, stress filled relationship, working environment, work pressure, socio cultural, biological  and psychological factors contribute to the eating disorders. According to  Laura Weisberg, PhD, director of the eating disorders program of Westwood Lodge Hospital in Westwood, Massachusetts, the behaviors and feelings keep reinforcing each other once eating disorder develops. The eating disorder strikes the vulnerable individual when he/she passes through a challenging life change or a happening.

 Eating Disorders Treatments

First get treated if any medical problem exists. This follows the psychological treatment to develop healthy ways of positive thinking and changing the behavioral pattern with food and relationship with family. A counseling for both the individual and the family can be arranged. Nutrition counseling is also a must in curing eating disorders. Regarding medical treatment, anti-depressants are mostly used.

As in any other disorders, early detection and treatment is better to cure eating disorders. The extent and speed of recovery varies with the individual and the mental approach of the concerned person. Don't feel shy in admitting the eating disorder and encourage others, whom you suspect of having eating disorders to take to treatment. Ignoring the eating disorder will lead to serious health problems in the long run
