Treatment for Bulimia in Adults at Growth Extended
Adults who are dealing with bulimia alternate between binging (consuming large amounts of food in a short time) and purging (expelling the food through self-induced vomiting, using laxatives or diuretics and engaging in excessive exercise). Typically, adults with bulimia have an unrealistic body image and struggle with low self-esteem, which further drives them to engage in harmful binging and purging.
The negative impact of adult bulimia can lead to serious medical problems ranging from tooth erosion, damage to the esophagus, depression, anxiety and more. However, with the right treatment for bulimia, adults struggling with this disorder can—and do—recover, going on to live healthy, happy lives.
The comprehensive adult bulimia treatment program at Growth Extended addresses not only the outward symptoms of the disorder but also any co-occurring conditions and underlying causes that may be present.
