Have you ever gotten over an eating disorder?

[Shortie]

Eating disorders are not something we hear about often but they are quite common. Having an eating disorder is never easy but there are ways to overcome the eating disorder and be able to eat normally again though these can take a while.

Have you ever been able to get over an eating disorder? What do you find helped you get over the eating disorder?

I don't have an eating disorder. I haven't experienced it at all.

There are several ways to get help: working with a mental health professional for guidance and support. Involvement of family members to help in understanding the disorder and also show support to the patients. Medication can prescribe to help in order to manage the symptoms.
