While this eating disorder assessment is not a medical diagnosis, if you can relate to many of the above statements, you may have an eating disorder. It may be beneficial for you to consider getting a more complete, professional eating disorder assessment conducted by an eating disorder treatment center.
Treatment for eating disorders is not as terrifying as many people anticipate. The compulsive eater will not be starved and the anorexic and bulimic will not be made "fat." The goal of eating disorder treatment is to restore healthy eating patterns, build a healthy self-image and resolve the core issues driving the eating disorder.
