I first developed an eating disorder at the age of 30. I had 14 years of recovery after that and now at the age of 48 I've relapsed. There is a lot of shame involved (I should have known better after all). I've limited the number of people I've told to my partner and Naturopath; neither have a lot of time. My ED makes me isolate anyway, but not sharing with others makes me feel like I'm doing this on my own!! I'm hoping to find some comfort from this website! Just seeing this article helps me to know that I'm not the only older person with this problem.
