Free Pursuing Recovery (Eating Disorder) Support Group

For anyone struggling with an eating disorder

Who can attend?

This group is for people with disordered eating and body image concerns. It includes people with diagnoses (anorexia, bulimia, and binge eating disorder, etc), as well as those with questions about their body image, eating, and exercise habits. Participants are in various stages of recovery, struggle, and/or treatment.

How will this help me?

Pursuing Recovery offers participants an opportunity to share experiences, learn from each other, and express emotions in a confidential and supportive environment. Listening, sharing (if you like), and being among individuals with eating disorders can: mitigate isolation, support recovery, and help manage life, emotions, treatment, and relationships. You may discover new coping mechanisms or stress management approaches.

Do I have to speak?

Sharing experiences is optional. Eventually people find out that they have more to say than they realized about their particular situation.
