Disordered Eating (Made from pamphlets about eating disorder awareness)


Disordered Eating

Afraid, angry and helpless.
These feelings are natural.
Ask for help.
Admit concerns.
You are doing the right thing.
Figure out what to do next.
What to say
Where to go for help.
There are people out there who understand

Self-starvation
Binge eating and purging
over-exercising
vomiting
feeling out of control,
ashamed
disgusted
feel nothing at all.

Beauty and shape
weight or body size
be aware of the ways your beliefs
about your body
your healthy and strong body
are influenced by our society.
Take good care of yourself.

Cycles of pain or fear
and the need to feel control
can become destructive obsessions.

your body image is being manipulated
Know the difference,
Respect yourself.
