Eating disorder awareness week
This year, during eating disorder awareness week we’ll be asking the question why wait?
On average 149 weeks pass before those experiencing eating disorder symptoms seek help! That’s almost three years, 37 months or 1,043 days.
We know the sooner someone gets the treatment they need the more likely they are to make a full and fast recovery! As well as campaigning to improve the services available, we recognise that we must raise awareness of the signs and symptoms of an eating disorder and encourage and empower people to take action now - no matter how long their symptoms have been present! So join us this eating disorder awareness week to ask: ‘why wait?’
Here are the early signs and symptoms of eating disorders and some information:
Eating disorders are serious mental illnesses that involve disordered eating behaviour. This might mean limiting the amount of food eaten, eating very large quantities of food at once, getting rid of food eaten through unhealthy means (e.g. purging, laxative misuse, fasting, or excessive exercise), or a combination of these behaviours. It’s important to remember that eating disorders are not all about food itself, but about feelings. The way the person interacts with food may make them feel more able to cope, or may make them feel in control. For further information take a look at the following link
