Steps to take to recover.

Eating disorder treatment step #1: Ask for help

It can be scary and embarrassing to seek help for an eating disorder but gaining support from a trusted friend, family member, religious leader, school counselor, or work colleague is for many people the first step on the road to recovery. Alternately, some people find it less threatening to confide in a treatment specialist, such as an eating disorder counselor or nutritionist.

Step 2: Find a specialist

Recovering form a disorder is easier if you have someone professional working with you. Find a professional councellor or nutritionist who specialises is anorexia or bulimia. Just find someone you see fir in helping you.

Step 3: Address health problems

Anorexia and Bulimia can be deadly. Being severely underweight. Continuous binge eating etc. are very severe symptoms. So it is right to get a full medical evaluation first to treat health problems as soon as they see them.

Step 4: Long term treatment plan

Once your health problems are under control, you and your doctor or therapist can work on a long-term recovery plan. First, you’ll need to assemble a complete eating disorder treatment team. Your team might include a family doctor, a psychologist, a nutritionist, a social worker, and a psychiatrist. Then you and your team will develop a treatment plan that’s individualized to meet your needs.
Your eating disorder treatment plan may include:

Inpatient treatment Individual or group therapy Family therapy

Eating disorder education Nutritional counseling Medical monitoring

An effective treatment program for eating disorders should address more than just your symptoms and destructive eating habits. It should also address the root causes of the problem—the emotional triggers that lead to disordered eating and your difficulty coping with stress, anxiety, fear and sadness.

So that's the steps you take to recover from a disorder.
