Impact of Childhood Trauma in Eating Disorders: Treatment and Recovery

By: Brock, Mary J.

Abuse, trauma, and explicitly childhood sexual abuse are in many cases proposed as significant risk factors for the development of eating disorders; however what is the genuine connection? One investigation discovered that around 25% of eating disordered patients has been sexually abused in childhood. These rates are higher among the individuals who suffer from bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder as opposed to those with anorexia nervosa. Nonetheless, it is important to remember that connection isn't equivalent to causation. Abuse is a vague risk factor, and that implies it can lead to different mental issues, including eating disorders yet in addition tension, despondency, and substance abuse.
