Many individuals with AN suffer from a lack of assertiveness, and develop the disease almost as a means of expressing their needs. Learning to assert yourself and to interact socially can be valuable in overcoming the disorder by eliminating the need to express yourself in that way.

Peer group support helps individuals to develop a more realistic attitude in their self-appraisal, and group discussions enable them to investigate their attitudes to body weight and shape in a wider context than that to which they are accustomed, that is, within their own minds. The presence of others when undergoing therapy can be an important stage in the dismantling of the isolation that is such an insidious feature of AN.
