Am I allowed to be a therapist for eating disorder patients, having had anorexia myself?

I have had anorexia for 2 years now, still do. I used to be in recovery and see doctors etc but stopped going. I do want to recover eventually, just not yet. Anyway, when I do recover, I would really like to help those with eating disorders. Am I technically allowed? Assuming I’m completely recovered?

Is there a disorder that resembles anorexia nervosa, but is entirely different?

Say, one is nervous of LOSING excess weight, and eats a lot?
I would say the opposite of Anorexia nervosa, but that sounds stupid.

Why is it that when people think eating disorder, they mostly think anorexia or bulimia?

I see a lot people address anorexia and bulimia but they don’t take binge eating disorder as seriously. In my eyes it is all the same (and I’ve suffered from all three of these). It has more to do with a dissatisfaction with oneself and an abuse of your body and/or food to remedy this feeling. So why are some eating disorder given more attention than others?
jakesmom: I think binge eating disorder effects a lot of people. If this weren’t the case, than the US wouldn’t be suffering an obesity epidemic.

Why isn’t extreme body building considered a mental disorder but anorexia and others is?

Alan — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 07:20:05 +0000

Ever wonder this? Obviously anorexia nervosa is a recognized mental disorder that can lead to death. But, why isn’t extreme bodybuilding? You know where men take steroids and looking so unaturally buff and extremely unhealthy. I mean obviously anorexia nervosa and exteme bodybuilding are caused by emotional, biological, and environmental factors. But I just don’t understand why extreme body building isn’t considered a mental disorder? Is it because you don’t have a chance of dying, unlike anorexia?

If You Or Anyone You Know Is Recovering From An Eating Disorder?

I’m in recovery. and man is it hard!!
I’ve struggled with anorexia and bulimia since I was 11.
after I almost died when I was 14. I accepted a feeding tube. I went through residential treatment and gained 70 lbs. now I’m at a healthy weight and sometimes it gets really hard
I purged today and I purged on wednesday. both times were blood.
which I used to have a hole in my throat from purging. and I’m afraid its opened back up. I’ve been helping others in their recovery. sharing my story
but now I’m struggling again. it all started when a girl I go to school with asked me to lose weight with her. the bad way. I should have said no. I had it in my mind.
but I said yes. and now I’m living with it again. I told her a while back that I couldn’t do it anymore. she accepted it and now I am helping her recover.
but I cant tell her that I still struggle. but I want her to know that there is still hope
I heard my parents talking the other day about my weight. I’m still a healthy weight and I am allowed to lose a few pounds.
I’ve been exercising to help me. and I want a really healthy and ‘hott’ body.
but it gets hard sometimes.
I’ve been eating OK. I make some unhealthy food choices. but I still follow my meal plan
does anyone have any advice for me?
to help me through recovery. and also some healthy weight loss tips?
thank you everyone!!
