What is Eating disorder?
Eating disorders are psychological illnesses that physiologically, emotionally, and psychologically weaken an individual. Kathmandu in the recent years has witnessed increased awareness of such disorders as more and more people have come out to receive professional intervention.
Eating disorders include Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, and Binge-eating disorder which are defined by abnormal or disturbed food consumption. Eating disorders are not food issues but are mostly based on psychological issues like low self-esteem, trauma, anxiety, depression, or body image expectations.
Unless treated, eating disorders have severe implications on one’s health, from malnutrition, electrolyte imbalance, cardiovascular complications, gastrointestinal complications, to death. Early treatment cannot be overstressed.
How to treat eating disorder?
The Mind Clinic’s Dr. Purushottam Adhikari adopts an integrated, evidence-based, patient-centered treatment plan for eating disorders. The treatment is typically a combination of or any of the following:
1. Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation
Each patient is assessed with a full psychiatric evaluation to assess the causes, associated mental disorders, and severity of the illness. Tailor-made diagnosis is the backbone of a successful treatment plan.
2. Individual Psychotherapy
Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), a highly effective treatment for eating disorders, is used most often to educate patients to identify and change pathological thought processes. Coping skills, emotional modulation, and body image are also treated in sessions.
3. Nutrition Counseling
The clinic collaborates with registered dietitians in developing structured meal plans to restore normal eating patterns and undo nutritional deficits and offer a healthful food relationship.
4. Family Involvement
For most patients, especially adolescent patients, patient treatment includes the involvement of family members. Family-Based Treatment (FBT) offers a supportive home environment and permits the family members to be supportive throughout the recovery process.
5. Medication Management
As required, antidepressant or antipsychotic medication is prescribed to manage comorbid illness such as depression, anxiety, or obsessive-compulsive behavior.
6. Relapse Prevention
Relapse prevention is an extremely important aspect of long-term recovery from eating disorders. The Mind Clinic focuses on relapse prevention through frequent sessions, support groups, and life coaching regularly.
