Eating disorders (ED) have doubled among Catalan teenagers since the lockdown due to the Covid pandemic. Diagnoses have increased especially among girls between 10 and 19 years old, regardless of their socioeconomic level and family situation. However, anorexia, bulimia and binge eating disorders are not only the domain of children and adolescents. The Catalan health survey indicates that there are currently more than 85,000 people who suffer from some type of ED. All these data were revealed last October, within the framework of a Sant Pau Talks in which, through several professionals from the hospital's ED unit and the witnesses of some of its former patients, the causes and personal and family effects of this group of mental illnesses were addressed, as well as the phases of their journey and the importance of this cure.
