Causes and Treatments for Eating Disorders There is no easy answer as to what causes eating disorders. It is often a complex series of events or beliefs adopted by a person that are clearly not to their highest good. For some, the media assault of what beauty is can have a catastrophic effect. The media presents images of people who spend many hours a week, not to mention thousands of dollars, creating an image that is actually achievable by a small percent of the population. What starts as an effort to achieve this look can spiral into an obsession driven by body hatred and other negative emotions. Anorexia, bulimia and binge eating are almost always accompanied by emotional issues.
