Eating Disorders
What are Eating Disorders?
Persons with eating disorders try to manage feelings by focusing instead on food, weight and body image, which profoundly disrupts their ability to regulate eating patterns and results in problems with health and happiness.
What are the symptoms?
Symptoms vary, depending on the type of eating disorder. Anorexia, bulimia and binge-eating disorder are the most common eating disorders. People with eating disorders can have all different body types and sizes.
