What is
Eating Disorders?

Eating Disorders are serious mental health conditions that require individualised programs of therapeutic support.

What Is It?

Eating disorders, are serious mental health conditions involving unhealthy relationships with food, body image, and eating behaviours. Common types include anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, ARFID, OSFED and binge eating disorder, each with distinct patterns and risks.

Common Experiences

People with eating disorders may obsess over weight, calories, or food control. They might restrict food, binge eat, purge, or exercise excessively. These behaviours are often driven by deep emotional distress, low self-esteem, or a need for control, and can feel overwhelming and secretive.

How It Can Affect You

Eating disorders can lead to severe physical health issues such as malnutrition, heart problems, and digestive issues, alongside intense emotional suffering. Relationships, daily functioning, and self-worth often suffer. Recovery is possible with professional treatment, support networks, and a compassionate, multi-disciplinary approach.
