In the U.K. people with eating disorders are at an all time high. The growing amount of patients is forcing the NHS (a treatment facility) to priortize what patients get help and which ones are put on the back burner for up to 3 years before receiving treatment. Patients with anorexia are treated well before patients with bulimia, and it's ironic that patients are being told that your condition must get worse beofore we can help you. Some patients feel they have no choice but to move to the U.S. or South Africa for treatment.
