Answers:
You're the only one who is able to stop your eating disorder for good.
You have to have the will power, and beleive you can get better. Write a diary and focus and what you are doing wrong. Plus talk to people you trust everytime you feel like bingeing or not eating normally. Health Question & Answer

That depends how willing you are to recover from it.

Obviously, if you don't have the discipline to do it, how are you going to better your life right.? So just be strong and try to get out of the mess you're in right now. I have faith in you.

Good luck! And I'm sorry you have an eating disorder.Health Question & Answer

Yeah, it all depends on how bad it was and still is.
I'm glad it's getting better, and I'm sorry you had to go through any of that.
My sister was anorexic and hospitalized, and it was pretty horrid for a while.

Just take your time, and it'll get better. Never feel guilty about eating, eating's the best.Health Question & Answer

i have bulimia and i've been hospitalized twice in my life. It's been three years since my last hospitalization and honestly i still struggle w/ my eating habits. I think it's like being an alcoholic. Health Question & Answer

Everyone is different. Some people recover quickly and others take years. Congratulations on your progress. You will get there but you have to be honest with yourself and your Dr. for the treatment to work. Health Question & Answer

Not long. It may be an immediate recovery. I had a lot of food allergies and my weight dropped. Soon after being medicated, it went up naturally.

I hope I helped.
May God be with you.
Have a nice day.
