If you answered yes to five or more of these questions, you may have an eating disorder. Eating disorders can be dangerous, cause life-long health effects and can sometimes be fatal. Living with an eating disorder is often painful and separates you from loving support and relationships.

Help is available in the form of individual counseling, medical and nutritional counseling, and self help support groups. With proper help, persons with an eating disorder can learn to stabilize their eating patterns, maintain a healthy weight, and become less preoccupied with food.
