Welcome.... this website has been created to help enable people with an eating disorder to help themselves towards a successful recovery. This site contains self help exercises, as well as comforting, informative, practical information and support useful to anyone with an eating disorder together with the concerned and supportive friend or relative.
We promote understanding of how eating disorders can effect anyone, not just for the sufferer but also the carers. It is intended to positively motivate and help support those wishing to take the initial small step and decide to try and change and achieve a normal healthy happy life again.
We sympathetically explore issues relating to eating disorders and give encouraging, realistic steps to aid self help alongside other support you may already have from family, friends or professional helpers.
Can you touch it ? no, but it affects how you feel. Can you see it ? no , but its there when you look at yourself in a mirror, or stand on a pair of scales. Can you hear it ?
" You got to lose weight , look how fat you are ! that is disgusting, how can you let yourself get like that. It's easy , your not going to eat (but i'm hungry) you can't eat breakfast (i ought to eat breakfast) you don't like eating breakfast , your to fat to be eating breakfast , you need to loose weight...(I'm so hungry...I want to eat, but I feel guilty , everything is out of control... )"
Remember...Life is precious, don't mess with something so delicate ...
