Eating disorders and substance use disorders share many underlying factors and frequently co-occur. At Penn Spine and Rehab, we help individuals find specialized programs that address both conditions with the expertise they require.
The Connection Between Eating Disorders and Addiction
Up to 50% of individuals with eating disorders also struggle with substance use, and vice versa. Both conditions may involve similar brain pathways, emotional regulation difficulties, and underlying trauma or mental health conditions.
Common eating disorders include:
- Anorexia Nervosa: Restriction of food intake and intense fear of weight gain
- Bulimia Nervosa: Cycles of binge eating followed by compensatory behaviors
- Binge Eating Disorder: Recurrent episodes of eating large amounts without compensatory behaviors
- OSFED: Other eating disorders that cause significant distress
Specialized Treatment Needs
Treatment for co-occurring eating disorders and addiction requires specialized expertise:
- Medical Monitoring: Both conditions can have serious physical health implications
- Nutritional Counseling: Registered dietitians help establish healthy eating patterns
- CBT for Eating Disorders: Evidence-based therapy for disordered eating
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Particularly effective for both conditions
- Body Image Work: Addressing distorted body perception
Finding Appropriate Care
Look for dual diagnosis programs with specific eating disorder expertise. Residential treatment is often recommended for medical stabilization and intensive support. Programs should include both addiction counselors and eating disorder specialists for comprehensive care.
