Q1.Sketch out a treatment plan for one experiencing anorexia. Make sure to take into account both the immediate and long-term treatment needs.

For some patients, this may require hospitalization; others may benefit from an outpatient setting which combines communal meals with a therapeutic program. "Cognitive-oriented therapies, focusing on issues of self-image and self-evaluation, are likely to be the most beneficial to the client" (Anorexia nervosa treatment, 2013, PsychCentral).

Long-term problems associated with alcohol abuse include impaired functioning at work and school, as well as physical complications such as heart disease, damage to the liver, high blood pressure, gout, dementia, and early death from drunken driving or poor judgment when inebriated (Freedman 2013).
