What Are Eating Disorders?

Eating disorders are complex mental health conditions that can affect how you eat, how you feel about your body, and how you move through daily life.

They are not simply about food. These disorders are often tied to deeper patterns around stress or ways of coping with difficult emotions.

Common Types of Eating Disorders We Treat

Anorexia Nervosa

Anorexia nervosa2 is characterized by restrictive eating, an intense fear of weight gain, and a distorted perception of body image.

Bulimia Nervosa

Bulimia nervosa3 involves cycles of binge eating followed by behaviors such as purging or other forms of compensation.

Binge Eating Disorder

Binge eating disorder is characterized by recurring episodes of eating large amounts of food, often accompanied by a sense of loss of control.

Other Eating-Related Conditions

Some individuals may not fit into a single diagnosis but still experience disordered eating patterns that affect their daily life.

Warning Signs of Eating Disorders

Eating disorders can present in different ways. You may notice:

  • Restrictive eating or skipping meals
  • Episodes of binge eating
  • Preoccupation with food, weight, or body image
  • Changes in weight or energy levels
  • Avoiding social situations involving food
  • Feelings of guilt, shame, or loss of control around eating

If any of this feels familiar, or like it’s getting harder to manage on your own, it might be time to talk to someone.

Eating Disorder Treatment Options at MyWellbrook

Treatment is personalized based on your needs, preferences, and goals.

Therapy for Eating Disorders

Medication Management

In some cases, medication may be used to support mood, anxiety, or related symptoms that contribute to disordered eating.
