Recognize that relapse is a reality. It doesn't mean failure, but it does mean that there is still a lot of work to be done. Eating disorders devour people's sense of self, personal relationships, and will to live. For many, they will be life-long battles. They are a way of dealing with stress and it is incredibly rare that life is not stressful. If you're suffering in a battle with relapse or know someone who is,do not let it get out of hand. Address it as quickly as possible; IT DOES NOT MEAN FAILURE.
