What is an eating disorder?
According to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), an eating disorder is an illness that causes serious disturbances to your everyday diet, such as eating extremely small amounts of food or severely overeating. Eating disorders generally fall into one of three categories, Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, or Binge Eating, also referred to as food addiction. However, those who suffer from eating disorders often do not easily fall into only one of these three categories. They will sometimes exhibit a combination of symptoms of any or all of the three.

What it means to be dually diagnosed
The term dual diagnosis describes someone who suffers from both a substance use disorder and another type of psychiatric illness. This condition could include depression, bipolar disorder, post-traumatic stress, ADD or ADHD, or any of a number of other mental health or behavioral issues.
