About the event

While most people associate anorexia with extreme weight loss and low BMI, atypical anorexia occurs when an individual experiences the same restrictive eating behaviours and psychological struggles.

This discrepancy leads to the dangerous misconception that people with atypical anorexia aren't as ill or deserving of help.

This session will discuss the key features of AAN; the difference between anorexia and atypical anorexia nervosa; treatment options and treatment team as well as the potential effect it has on an individual.
