Medical Cannabis for Eating Disorders and Bulimia Nervosa

Eating disorders can take over both physical health and emotional wellbeing, often quietly and over time. For many people, recovery is complex and non-linear, requiring long-term, specialist support.

In specific circumstances, a regulated medical cannabis assessment may be considered as part of a wider, clinician-led treatment plan focused on safety and stabilisation.

Living With Eating Disorders

Eating disorders, including bulimia nervosa, may involve cycles of restriction, bingeing, purging, anxiety around food, and distressing thoughts about weight or control.

Treatment primarily centres on psychological therapy, nutritional rehabilitation, and medical monitoring. Some individuals continue to struggle with associated symptoms such as anxiety, sleep disruption, or appetite regulation despite ongoing care.

Support often needs to be highly individualised and carefully coordinated.

When Might Medical Cannabis Be Considered?

Medical cannabis is not a primary treatment for eating disorders. In certain cases, specialist doctors may consider it to support associated symptoms such as severe anxiety, sleep disturbance, or appetite issues where standard approaches have been insufficient.

Any consideration requires careful assessment and ongoing clinical oversight.
