About seeking treatment...
If you think that you are experiencing the effects of an eating disorder, or that you may be developing an unhealthy relationship with food and/or your body, it is really important that you seek help. Eating disorders can cause serious physical and psychological problems and sometimes result in death. They also contribute to disturbances in self esteem, destroy relationships with family and friends, perpetuate personal dissatisfaction with life and erode confidence, creativity and happiness...the list of damaging effects is endless.
The eating disorder will try to convince you that you do not need help, that you are not sick enough, not worthy enough or not important enough. This is not true; you cannot trust It; It lies...that's how it keeps people in its grip. Seeking help is the first step towards turning your back on the eating disorder and diminishing its power and control over your life.
These pages have been established to help you get assistance from a professional or service that will help. Please note that most of these services are not for people who experience problems with obesity, nor do they provide for those wishing to lose weight.
