You are tired of struggling with food taking up so much headspace. You don’t have to deal with your eating disorder alone anymore.
Whether you've been recently diagnosed or have gone years without support for the eating disorder, you deserve help. Living with an eating disorder can make you feel very alone. You want food and your body to take up less mental energy.
Having an eating disorder is debilitating. You can’t stop thinking about food and your body. Your eating disorder is getting in the way of you having meaningful relationships, having romantic partnerships, enjoying life, pursuing a new career, being a better parent, traveling and so much more. Eating disorders prevent you from living a full life.
You're ready to get support and move toward healing and recovery, but you feel a little nervous and hesitant (and that’s okay). Here’s the bottom line: You deserve help. You don’t need to be “sick enough” to get support. You don't need to wait until the eating disorder gets worse before you start. Don’t wait until things get worse before you get support.

Do I Have an Eating Disorder?

An indication that weight loss and dieting are a big concern.
Eating to the point of becoming ill.
Hiding/stockpiling foods.
Trying to seek to get rid of food through purging.
Thinking a lot about food and nutrition labels and the content there.
Cutting out whole food groups like all sugar, all dairy, all meat, all processed foods, all carbs.
Fearing
Avoiding social situations where there is food around.
Engaging in excessive exercise
Lots of concern and fear around body size and shape-changing and/or a desire for it to shrink.
The reality is eating disorders come in all shapes, sizes, and abilities. People of all genders, sexual orientations, races, ethnicities, and socioeconomic classes are affected despite what the culture and media present as what eating disorders “look like”. Eating disorders do not discriminate.
