Recovering from anorexia - It’s not just about the weight

insook.com Editor — Mon, 28 Nov 2005 20:30:27 +0000

Patients entering treatment for anorexia sometimes resist getting help from what they perceive as various authority figures such as doctors, psychiatrists, and nutritionists trying to make them fat and gain weight. This is partly in response to some of the screening and evaluation methods used with eating disorder patients, especially the widely used height and weight charts from MetLife or the USDA.

One response to the perception of "unrealistic" goals set by treatment programs can be that patients will actually work diligently at gaining weight as quickly as possible, in order to be declared "cured" and thus "escape" from their treatment program, free to resume their old behavior. It is not uncommon to see some women who have gone in and out of treatment facilities with this pattern.

Ross’ Story

Ross, one of Insook's patients, shares some thoughts about his experience with developing and recovering from an eating disorder:
It started innocently enough, a way to get back at the one who ruled my life with an iron fist, however, it began to consume every aspect of my early life. A year or so in, I started believing that I didn't deserve food, that if I wasn't who everyone thought I should be, I stumbled, if I found life to be difficult, I was something less than human. These thoughts, these feelings might not be uncommon to an eleven year old, but my desperation grew exponentially until my depression peaked at thirteen.
