This is a wonderful overview of eating disorder treatment. This gives so much information in a clear concise way. Thank you!

[unknownUserofYoutube]

I watched this video to get advice on how I can help myself. It triggered me so badly I really hope I will be able to eat at all tomorrow. Also brought back some memories from the psychward

This is clearly well intentioned, but I feel like this assumes that eating disorders are completely appearance focused when there are a lot of other motivations over or under eating.

After having an ED for 25 years… I feel recovery is not possible

[sophie]

Is it common for those with eating disorders to look in the mirror and see themselves as fat when the rest of us clearly how they truly are dangerously skinny? Suppose the sufferer wants to schedule herself for a liposuction on her hips or buttocks? When, if ever, should we agree with them and say "I agree that you are fat let me help you lose more weight" ... serious question

[dalibofurnell]

There are literally no groups here in South Africa

[dalibofurnell]

Most treatment is completely unaffordable
