“The punitive behavior modification program she underwent
(family visits were denied if she failed to gain weight)
foreshadowed years of hospitalizations that she contends
did nothing to ease her condition.”
(Amazon.com, 2006)

Are these techniques effective in helping clients recover?
According to the Eating Disorder Sourcebook: (Costin, 1996)
Only 30-40 percent ever fully recover
Only 50 percent report being cured
5 to 10 percent of anorexics die
(within ten years from onset)
20 percent will be dead after twenty years
![Page 19: Eating Disorders: A Comprehensive Approach](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051617/55a72fa61a28abbc668b461d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
A comprehensive treatment approach has been shown to be effective
No specific form of therapy seems to be more effective than another
(Healthy Place, 2006)
