Can You Have Multiple More Than One Eating Disorder?

Everyone is unique and individual, and a person’s experience of eating disorders is no exception.

The disordered thinking that results in an eating disorder can just as easily cause two or more overlapping eating disorders, or cause one to morph into another over time.

It is completely normal for an eating disorder sufferer to experience two or more eating disorders at once, or to see one eating disorder they’ve grown accustomed to ‘managing’ change into a different eating disorder entirely. 

The mind is a fascinating, complex, and powerful place, and the point where thought crosses over into action can is fluid and can easily change with time.

Getting professional, expert help with an eating disorder is important for regaining control of your life. But if you feel you may be dealing with more than one eating disorder, or if it’s changed over time, you really need to get someone involved who knows what they’re dealing with.

The key is to look for a qualified mental health therapist who specializes in the management of eating disorders and all the unique challenges and complications that come along with that diagnosis.
