A member asked:
For what length of time in therapy for bulimia (i'm nearly 35)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Individual process: Time of therapy required to treat bulimia is variable, and depends on the patient's history, family issues, outside support, commitment to treatment, etc. Also it depends upon professional collaboration. Some people do better by starting with an inpatient eating disorders program, and this might give them a head start.
