Often disordered eating has in roots in trauma. Whether that trauma is emotional, physical, or sexual abuse; feeling out of control in an unstable home, or being given the message (covertly or overtly) that you are never good enough, the trauma can lead to desperate attempts to regain control. This is where disordered eating comes in, as it most definitely gives you the feeling of being in control--even if in all actuality you are the one being controlled.
