TESTIMONIALS

I have a wife with bulimia and it was getting to the point where I couldn't take it any more. She needed bulimia treatment badly, but I didn't know where to turn. Through the internet I came across your site and sent my wife for bulimia treatment at your center.

Whoever she first spoke with made her feel so comfortable, she even became excited about the possibility of not having to binge and purge any more. The change in her is amazing. I know she will always be recovering, but I am proud to say she is the most courageous person I know. Thank you for all of your help.

-- Preston V., Nashua, New Hampshire

I needed to find an eating disorder clinic so badly. I used to eat compulsively and had swung over completely to purging and laxatives. I felt so bad about myself, the shame and guilt was just killing me. I had been to an eating disorder clinic before, but they really did not address my mood swings, that I have since understood them to be a bipolar disorder.

Your staff kept telling me that my eating behavior was a symptom of other problems. Well even though I didn't believe them they turned out to be right. I don't use laxatives, I have even learned to exercise moderately. Thank you so much. By the way, it has been ten months since I last purged.

Well Shelly, I told you I would write when I had one year in recovery and here I am. Who would have guessed. I have so much gratitude for you taking your time and referring me to a great facility. I knew from the moment I walked in there that I was in the right place. The next time I come by it will be to visit, not as a patient. You are absolutely the greatest.

Compulsive overeating treatment used to be based around diets alone, with the hope that one day the individual would be slim and trim. Diet companies made a fortune on special diets and pills but they very rarely worked. This form of compulsive overeating treatment usually back-fired, with the individual gaining back more weight than they initially lost on these programs. Yoyo weight loss and weight gain is a common complaint when using diet programs alone as compulsive overeating treatment. The fact is, they just don't work.

Compulsive Overeating Treatment - Fighting the Addiction

Compulsive overeating is an addiction where the individual uses food to cope with feelings such as anger, anxiety or stress. Similar to drug addiction, the best compulsive overeating treatment is found in a residential treatment program. The residential program provides the individual with structure, accountability, support around their meals and a variety of clinical tools to avoid relapse. Some of the other services provided in a residential center for the treatment of compulsive overeating are:

  • Individual psychotherapy
  • Group psychotherapy
  • Nutritional counseling
  • Body image class
  • Dual diagnosis treatment
  • Family recovery program
  • Relapse prevention
  • Aftercare

It is important that the compulsive overeating treatment help the affected individual understand that their self-esteem should not be tied to a number. Many people entering compulsive overeating treatment believe that if the scale reveals a lower number then everything will be ok. Nothing could be farther from the truth. One of the things taught in treatment is that a person must learn to accept themselves exactly as they are and that recovery has to do with building self esteem, self worth, confidence and a sense of well being. Maintaining weight loss will come as a direct result of feeling good about oneself and following the aftercare plan developed for them in compulsive overeating treatment. For help locating treatment, call us any time day or night at 1-800-941-5313. All calls are toll-free and confidential.

I should have gotten treatment for sexual trauma eariler in life.

Does your body image determine who you are?

Why alcohol is not a bulimic's drug of choice.

We can use food to cope with a drug addiction or vice versa!

My drug addiction problems went hand in hand with my eating disorder.
