Is full remission possible?

The anxiety or compulsion to restrict doesn't go. We know that the neural underpinnings remain even in remission (which is why there is really no such thing as "recovery" in a cure sense). The neurotransmitters that misfire within the amygdala continue to do their thing after you restore your weight, but they are quieter. And that means you don't feel the same intensity of anxiety as you do when you are in a flare of the condition, but it can still be there in the background.

CBT(cognitive...) is a pretty solid treatment for restrictive eating -- it's short-circuiting the avoidance with non-avoidant behaviours and this can alleviate the fear response over time as well. Source:http://youreatopia.squarespace.com/relapse/post/1757955
