thinking of attending

I am not currently being treated for my eating disorder but am seeking treatment. Is this support group only for those who are recovering and have been in treatment for sometime? Do you find this valuable?

Hi there,

The group is open to anyone who is interested in recovering from an eating disorder. We have a range of participants--from those just realizing that they don't want an eating disorder to be the center of their lives but have no idea how to change this--to those who are well on the way to recovery. Several of the group members receive other types of support from therapists or nutritionists but there is no requirement that members be in any specific type of treatment.

Why not come one time and see? It is a friendly and welcoming group and all have great compassion for starting the process of healing and recovering from an eating disorder. Do you find this valuable?
