There is no singular or universal remedy for eating disorders. In fact, eating disorders are as diverse as the individuals who suffer from them, which is why it’s so important that eating disorder treatment programs be designed on a case-by-case basis. The plain fact of the matter is that no two victims are ever exactly alike, and no eating disorder treatment facility should care for them as if they were. If you’re going to overcome anorexia or bulimia, in other words, it’s going to have to be on your own terms.

Remember too that the decision to seek eating disorder treatment is only the beginning of the recovery process, not the end. Eating disorders are fierce diseases, and overcoming them demands both effort and patience. As important as it is to take the first step, you’ll never get where you need to go if you aren’t willing to stay committed over the long run. You already know what you have to lose. Now it’s time to find out just how good victory can feel. Here’s hoping you can find the wherewithal to finally do what you must.
