Therapy for Restrictive Eating Disorders in Greensboro North Carolina
What are Restrictive Eating Disorders and Under-eating?
Have you ever felt trapped in a never-ending cycle of scrutinizing and obsessing over every morsel of food you eat?
Perhaps you’ve been told that you’re not nourishing yourself enough. Maybe you’ve experienced the guilt of overeating, leading to a drastic reduction in your food intake for days on end.
It’s possible that you find yourself limiting portions in a way that others would consider excessive, or you feel an overwhelming compulsion to maintain an excessively “clean” and “healthy” diet!
These struggles can be characteristic of restrictive eating disorders, such as Anorexia Nervosa, and they can have significant detrimental effects on both your physical and mental well-being.
Restrictive eating disorders, like Anorexia Nervosa, can lead to nutritional deficiencies including anemia, hypoglycemia, fatigue, decreased energy muscle weakness, as well as depression and feelings of anxiety due to the constant preoccupation with food, weight, and body image!
Who is at Risk for Eating Disorders?
Eating disorders are not picky (no pun intended)! They can affect people of all ages, races ethnicities, backgrounds, body weights, body types or genders!
Although eating disorders often appear during an individual’s adolescent (teenage) years or young adulthood, they may also develop during childhood or later in life (40 years and older).
People with eating disorders may appear “healthy,” yet be extremely ill. The exact cause of eating disorders is not fully understood, but research suggests a combination of genetic, biological, behavioral, psychological, and social factors can raise a person’s risk.
