It’s National Eating Disorders Week.. so I wanted to share some statistics from 2011…Prevalence
Up to 24 million people suffer from eating disorders in the U.S.
1 in 5 women struggle with eating disorders or disordered eating.
95% of those who have eating disorders are between the ages of 12 and 25.
25% of college-aged women engage in bingeing and purging as a weight-management technique.
Anorexia nervosa is the 3rd most common chronic illness among adolescents.
Mortality rate
Eating disorders have the highest mortality rate of any mental illness.
The mortality rate associated with anorexia nervosa is 12x higher than the death rate of ALL causes of death for females 15- to 24-years-old.
20% of people suffering from anorexia nervosa will prematurely die from complications related to their eating disorder, including suicide and heart problems.
Men and eating disorders
An estimated 10 to 15% of people with anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa are male.
Among gay men, nearly 14% appeared to suffer from bulimia nervosa and over 20% appeared to suffer from anorexia nervosa.

There is absolutely NO SHAME in seeking counseling for an eating disorder! As a psych major in college, I learned quite a bit about eating disorders AND counseling. So much so, that I started seeing one myself! I can’t even begin to tell you how much that helped me! To be able to talk to a neutral third party who can HELP you figure out the underlying cause of your disorder is SUCH a relief… because once you figure out the deeper problems, you can begin to work on them and heal. Honestly I highly, highly recommend it! <3
And besides the big two, anorexia (AN) and bulimia (BN), be aware that there are other forms of disordered eating, including but not limited to: binge eating disorder (BED), exercise bulimia, orthorexia, and eating disorder - not otherwise specified (ED-NOS).](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m050gkjNAq1qm5hzso1_250.jpg)
