Eating Problems / Disorders

Difficulties around food, eating or body image can become overwhelming and affect many parts of life. With the right support, you can begin to understand what is happening and work towards a healthier relationship with food and yourself.

Challenge

  • Are you obsessed with rapid weight loss, weight gain, or dramatic weight fluctuations?
  • Do you have frequent concerns regarding your weight or weighing yourself?
  • Do you undertake excessive exercise, fasting, dieting, restricting or limiting food intake, followed by increased eating/binging?
  • Do you undertake any type of purging after eating?

Selective eating is often associated with anxiety and stress. Eating disorders such as anorexia or bulimia are very serious and can lead to a host of serious physical problems and health complications. In severe cases, treatment and support may be needed in a specialist clinic.
