The eating disorder battle: How to recover without insurance

Nearly 10 million women and 1 million men in America suffer from an eating disorder. As their illness causes them to pursue a 'perfect' body, but the pursuit can lead to a recovery price that is far too high.

By Ashley Wilbourn

Eating disorders - anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder and others - affect nearly ten million females and one million males in the United States.

Despite the growing amount of research on eating disorders and the growing awareness surrounding the various diseases, there is still a lot that is unknown, forcing many people to suffer in silence. 

Even those who choose to look for help may find it too expensive.  A month of inpatient treatment can run patients up to $30,000 - a price that is often not covered by insurance companies.

Many insurance companies refuse to treat eating disorders, claiming they are not a biological illness but rather a psychological illness caused by environmental factors.  In some states though, the tide is starting to turn.  For instance, on April 23, 2009, a judge in New Jersey required the state's largest health insurance provider to cover claims for eating disorders.

Those who suffer from eating disorders across the nation and their families are hoping other states will follow suit.

Wonderful paintings! That is the type of info that should be shared around the net. Disgrace on the seek engines for now not positioning this post upper! Come on over and consult with my website . Thanks =)

I was curious if you ever thought of changing the structure of your site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2 pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

Interesting post right here. One thing I would really like to say is the fact that most professional domains consider the Bachelor's Degree just as the entry level requirement for an online education. When Associate Degrees are a great way to get started, completing a person's Bachelors opens up many entrance doors to various jobs, there are numerous online Bachelor Diploma Programs available through institutions like The University of Phoenix, Intercontinental University Online and Kaplan. Another concern is that many brick and mortar institutions make available Online versions of their college diplomas but often for a drastically higher amount of money than the companies that specialize in online college diploma plans.

This design is spectacular! You obviously know how to keep a reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost...HaHa!) Fantastic job. I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!

Wow that was strange. I just wrote an incredibly long comment but after I clicked submit my comment didn't show up. Grrrr... well I'm not writing all that over again. Anyway, just wanted to say superb blog!

Does your site have a contact page? I'm having a tough time locating it but, I'd like to shoot you an e-mail. I've got some suggestions for your blog you might be interested in hearing. Either way, great blog and I look forward to seeing it expand over time.

I was wondering if you ever considered changing the layout of your site? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.

Hi there! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing several weeks of hard work due to no data backup. Do you have any methods to stop hackers?

Howdy, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just wondering if you get a lot of spam comments? If so how do you protect against it, any plugin or anything you can suggest? I get so much lately it's driving me mad so any assistance is very much appreciated.

Today, I went to the beachfront with my children. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said "You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear." She put the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I had to tell someone!

The crux of your writing whilst sounding reasonable initially, did not really settle very well with me after some time. Someplace within the sentences you actually were able to make me a believer unfortunately just for a very short while. I still have a problem with your leaps in assumptions and you might do well to help fill in those gaps. If you can accomplish that, I would surely be impressed.

Interesting blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere? A design like yours with a few simple adjustements would really make my blog stand out. Please let me know where you got your theme. Thanks a lot

Good day! This is kind of off topic but I need some help from an established blog. Is it very difficult to set up your own blog? I'm not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick. I'm thinking about making my own but I'm not sure where to begin. Do you have any points or suggestions? With thanks

Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is valuable and everything. But imagine if you added some great visuals or video clips to give your posts more, "pop"! Your content is excellent but with pics and videos, this blog could certainly be one of the very best in its niche. Terrific blog!

This design is steller! You definitely know how to keep a reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost...HaHa!) Great job. I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!

Sweet blog! I found it while searching on Yahoo News. Do you have any tips on how to get listed in Yahoo News? I've been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Thank you

Hi there! Do you use Twitter? I'd like to follow you if that would be ok. I'm absolutely enjoying your blog and look forward to new updates.

Hello there! Quick question that's entirely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My weblog looks weird when viewing from my iphone. I'm trying to find a template or plugin that might be able to resolve this problem. If you have any suggestions, please share. With thanks!

Heya just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren't loading properly. I'm not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I've tried it in two different internet browsers and both show the same results.

My spouse and I absolutely love your blog and find a lot of your post's to be what precisely I'm looking for. Does one offer guest writers to write content for you? I wouldn't mind composing a post or elaborating on some of the subjects you write about here. Again, awesome site!

It's a shame you don't have a donate button! I'd without a doubt donate to this fantastic blog! I suppose for now i'll settle for bookmarking and adding your RSS feed to my Google account. I look forward to brand new updates and will talk about this website with my Facebook group. Talk soon!

I'm not sure why but this weblog is loading incredibly slow for me. Is anyone else having this issue or is it a issue on my end? I'll check back later on and see if the problem still exists.

I think this is among the so much significant info for me. And i am glad reading your article. However should observation on few common things, The web site taste is great, the articles is in reality excellent : D. Just right process, cheers

I grasp that this is a very generic remark and you most definitely don't have to place it if you certainly do not wish to; yet, I only desired to let you understand that your website is wonderful, I surely enjoyed myself and experienced a good deal. Many thanks.

Thanks for the useful information on credit repair on this site. A few things i would tell people should be to give up a mentality that they can buy right now and shell out later. As a society many of us tend to do that for many things. This includes trips, furniture, and items we'd like. However, you must separate the wants from all the needs. As long as you're working to raise your credit score make some trade-offs. For example you may shop online to save cash or you can look at second hand suppliers instead of costly department stores to get clothing.

Thanks for this article. I would also like to convey that it can always be hard when you're in school and starting out to create a long history of credit. There are many students who are only trying to endure and have a lengthy or positive credit history can often be a difficult issue to have.

I have read several good stuff here. Certainly worth bookmarking for revisiting. I surprise how much effort you put to create such a magnificent informative web site.

I'm extremely inspired together with your writing skills as well as with the format on your weblog. Is this a paid subject matter or did you modify it your self? Either way stay up the nice high quality writing, it is uncommon to look a great blog like this one these days.
