if you feel you have anorxia seek help IMMEDIATELY!!! this is a serious illness and needs to be taken care of as quick as you can. anorexia is no more a physical illness than it is a mental one. with conceling and maybe doctor visit depending on how sever the anorexia is you should get back on track. although this does not work for every one. some people just dont actually want to try and for them there is really nothing that can be done. if you think a friend has anorexia approche them gently with the subject. do not come right out and ask them as it may frighten them take your time and build up their trust. one thing you should not do with an anorexic is just not eat because they arent it makes them feel worse about them selves. please just make sure you or the person have alot of moral support and get professional help it is EXTREMELY important.
Treatment for anorexia will vary depending on the individual and the severity of the disorder. For less-severe patients, out-patient treatment and medical monitoring are usually ideal. This include therapy session (individual, group, and / or family) and help from a nutritionist. For more-severe patients, in-patient treatment is often needed. There are still therpay and nutritional help, but the anorexic might also need a feeding tube or IV, medications to help stablize health or mental health, more intense therpay session, and nutritional supplements (usually in the form of drinks or shakes) to regain weight.
It varies based on the individual and the severity of the case. Almost all will have medical help / intervention. There will almost always be therapy. This can vary from individual therapy to group therapy with family and friends. For those with severe cases, food therapy might also happen. If needed, an IV or feeding tube might also be hooked up.
There are many different treatments and styles of treatments all designed for anorexia. The variation comes from a wide degree of severity, cases, individual needs, affordability, and access to care. Some common forms or points of treatment are...
*In-patient, hospital addmittance
*Nutritionists
*Therapy (individaul, group, family, community)
*IV / Feeding Tubes
*Out-patient Monitoring
*Counseling
*Physical Rehabilitation
*Psycho-Therapy Treatments
*Medicine / Drug Therapy

However, Therapy and Medications are very often combined as a treatment.

Anorexia is the correct spelling.
It is just a shorter version of the full name. Anorexia is short for Anorexia Nervosa. Therefore, Anorexia Nervosa is commonly referred to as Anorexia. (As is Bulimia. Bulimia is short for Bulimia Nervosa.)
Treatment of anorexia nervosa includes both short-term and long-term measures, and requires assessment by dietitians and psychiatrists as well as medical specialists.
