I Did Not Succesfully Accomplish
Share one example of a goal you set for yourself in the past that you did not successfully accomplish. Explain why you feel you were not successful.

A goal that I did not succesfully accomplish: "I wish I overcame the eating disorder someday."
BUT I did NOT overcome the eating disorder for a week, a month, few month, several months, a year, few year..... Before I knew it, five years has passed.

The reason why I could not succesfully accomplish, to overcome eating disorder someday is the following possible causes. First, the goal is ambiguous. I always thought that my symptoms would heal up "sometime" and "naturally". Therefore, I had made any specific plan for overcoming. Moreover, I took eating disorder overcoming lighly and did not consider the time to actually overcome. According to Davies, Bacon, & Buckroyd (2016), "The title, which identifies ‘long-term recovery’ as the goal for readers, draws on their own experience that however much you might like a quick fix, recovery from an eating disorder takes time, sometimes a long time."(p. foreword) I thought that I could overcome without taking too much time.

If I accept the reality, I must be aware that this is no time to work long hours. I thought that I should not quit work at that time. I worked long hours without embarking on overcoming and time's just passing by. Third, I was a perfectionist. When I overate once, I often gave up overcoming.

Once this is accomplished, the first priority in treating eating disorders, is ensuring that the patient recovers to a healthy weight (Hartung & Stevens), this can limit the physiological issues that are caused by being underweight. The next steps can often be the most difficult, which is dealing with the mental issues and helping the patient to recover healthy self-worth and self-image. The next step of treatment, once low weight is not causing imminent danger, is psychological treatment of the disease. The evidence based treatment, is the case of all three eating disorders is, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which addresses the fact that the woman with the disease is over-evaluating herself based on body weight and shape (Wilson, Grilo & Vitousek, 201). When treating any person with a mental disorder, it is important to help him or her to think in a healthy way, and to ensure that it will continue far in to the future. If only the physical symptoms of the disease are treated, the person will relapse soon after leaving treatment for the disorder. While these treatments work for many patients, helping to improve quality of life, there are still patients which have relapse of eating disorder symptoms. More treatment…
