  1. Anorexia Nervosa

  3. Compulsive Overeating
  4. Restricting

Why?

Disordered Eating is a result of feelings and thoughts that are not being addressed in a healthier way. Often when a person focuses and works hard on issues that contribute to disordered eating; the eating behavior balances out. Healthier coping skills replace the disordered eating.
