A member asked:
Can depression go away after an eating disorder?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: It depends on the cause of the depression. If there is a direct correlation between the depression and the eating disorder, then yes the depression could resolve if the eating disorder is treated. If the depression has been ongoing or perhaps related to other issues, then it will likely not go away on its own without treatment. Therapy is a good treatment for both.
