I think this is a way that women experience eating disorders differently from men. For sure, if you are an adult women and you have to go to treatment, as Dr. Woodside said, treatment can last nine months to a year to do it properly. What are you supposed to do with your children during that time? Who's going to take care of them? Where is the social and economic support to be able to leave a job or school and go for treatment?
