Pandemic created perfect storm for eating disorders in teens TODAY 2 hrs ago © Provided by TODAY It was barely a month into the pandemic when Dr. Tracy Richmond, the director of the Eating Disorder Program at Boston Children s Hospital, knew something bad was happening in young people. Richmond said her team was getting an unusual number of requests for help with eating disorders in mid-April 2020. By summertime, she said, we were bursting at the seams. The problem is not limited to the Boston area. The National Eating Disorder Association reports a more than 53% increase in call volume to its helpline since the start of the pandemic. Just over a third of those patients are ages 13 to 17, and about 36% are 18 to 24 years old.
