Breaking Up [from an eating disorder] Is Hard To Do by Lisa Carroll, MS, RD, LDN

A breakup is a loss and can be felt like grief, sadness, disappointment and even failure. During a breakup you not only say goodbye to the day to day rhythms you have grown so accustomed to but also the plans, dreams and hopes for the future. That abrupt change can be overwhelming and times of transition are hard! And this can apply to breaking up with a person as well as a way of life or maladaptive coping skill like an eating disorder.
