Did you know that 9% of the U.S. population will have an eating disorder in their lifetime, yet only 1 in 10 people with an eating disorder receive treatment?

Misconceptions about eating disorders can leave young adults without the appropriate care and support they need. Taylor Garlow, RD, CDN, MS, and Jayne Cudia, RD, CDN, MS, two of our full-time register dietitians, address 4 common misconceptions about ED to help break down barriers to treatment.

For Eating Disorders Awareness week, we’re highlighting 5 celebrity voices who have openly shared their struggles with disordered eating.

Their stories reflect this year’s theme Every BODY Belongs: a reminder that eating disorders can look different from person to person, and affect people of all different ages, racial and ethnic backgrounds, body weights and genders.

⭐ Healing happens when all kinds of bodies are allowed to take up space.

If you or someone you know is dealing with ED symptoms, reach out to one of these resources:

1. : Free support groups and peer-to-peer recovery programs

2: : Screening tools and educational resources

3. Eating Disorders Anonymous: 12-step program with virtual and in-person options

4. 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline (US)

5. 1-888-375-7767 ANAD’s Eating Disorder Hotline

6. Alliance for Eating Disorders: 1-866-662-1235

7. Members of our community should reach out to their primary clinician for support.

A life beyond an eating disorder is possible.

Have you been wondering why Punch is so attached to his stuffed Orangutan? Punch never had a mother to provide safety, so his nervous system found the next closest source of comfort and held on. His stuffed toy serves as a transitional object—something that regulates the nervous system in the absence of a safe caregiver.

While we’re seeing it with Punch, this is not limited to primates.

Young adults struggling with attachment wounds can rely just as heavily on substances, relationships, behaviors, or routines that serve the same regulatory function because they didn’t learn to develop internal tools to regulate on their own. Healing begins with building safe, consistent connections to regulate and calm the nervous system.

Over time, these safe connections become the foundation for developing a more secure attachment style and lasting recovery. 💜

For this National Eating Disorders Awareness week, we’re highlighting Diego, a student who struggled with a severe depressive episode that exacerbated his anorexia symptoms, alongside other co-occurring diagnoses. Diego has now successfully returned to college full-time balancing his academics and social life.

“I just wrapped up my first successful semester back at school, and I truly owe it to the progress I made at The Dorm — they were my lifeline during some of my lowest moments. I feel present and connected to life and to myself.” -Diego

Read more on how he found strength, stability, and a path back to school through multidisciplinary, affirming care. ✨

For Valentine’s Day, young adults may feel pressure to be in a relationship or celebrate the day with a significant other. This is a reminder that your relationship status doesn’t determine your worth or happiness, and that love comes in many forms.

Love shows up in friendships, family, community, and in the quiet moments you spend caring for yourself. 💜

In honor of Black History Month, we recognize the persistent mental health disparities facing Black communities across the United States and around the world.

📉 Only 1-in-3 Black adults with mental illness receive treatment.
📉 Black Americans are more likely to receive lower quality mental healthcare.
📉 Black individuals are more likely to receive a misdiagnosis of schizophrenia compared to other populations.

Today and every day, we acknowledge the critical need for culturally-responsive care that honors and serves everyone in our community.
