It’s Body Image and Eating Disorder Awareness Week ( 1-7 September) and it’s time we expanded our understanding of why eating disorders develop and how to access support 💙

With over 1.1 million people in Australia experiencing an eating disorder in any given year, understanding why these illnesses develop allows us to provide better support.

‘Unpacking the Why’ builds empathy for the many people whose experiences of an eating disorder may lead them to feel ‘invisible’ behind common stereotypes, because it’s not always body image related - eating disorders can emerge due to a range of other influences, including (but not limited to) trauma, sensory sensitivities, genetics, personality traits, culture, family history, and co-occurring health conditions such as diabetes, endometriosis and others.

No matter how the eating disorder developed, recovery is possible, and organisations like are here to help 🦋

Our Youth Access Clinician Ken Brown shares a reflection on young people seeking mental health support from artificial intelligence. Have a read below! 💚

"I’ve been reading the story of Sophie Rottenberg, shared in the New York Times. Sophie was 29 years old when she passed away, after turning to an AI chatbot she called “Harry” for comfort instead of a therapist. The bot gave her kind words, but it couldn’t act, couldn’t reach out to her family, and couldn’t hold the responsibility that comes with real human care.

Her story hit me hard. It shows us that healing doesn’t happen in isolation or through technology alone. It happens in connection—with people, on Country, in relationship. Words on a screen, no matter how kind, can’t replace presence, kinship, and accountability.

At headspace Warwick, that’s what we stand for: real conversations, real connection, real support. No young person should have to walk through dark times alone."

Reflections from Our NAIDOC 2025 River Walk - headspace Warwick
Theme: The Next Generation - Strength, Vision & Legacy

Last week, and again today on the banks of the Condamine, we walked together - not just to honour Aboriginal culture, but to reflect on what it means to belong to this land as Australians, in all our diversity.

NAIDOC isn’t just for mob. It’s a national moment.
A chance to pause.
To tilt the glass and see what’s always been here:
Connection to Country.
Responsibility to each other.
A legacy that predates colonisation and belongs to all who now walk this land.

As Australians - from all cultures, backgrounds and walks of life - we share more than a passport. We share a relationship with this place. And with that comes a question:

How do we present ourselves to the world?
As a nation of discovery - or a nation of deep story?
As individuals - or as caretakers of Country?

May we keep learning to see with two sets of eyes - old and new - and may NAIDOC continue to grow as a national celebration of Country, of care, and of the shared legacy we all shape together.
The next generation is already here - and they’re watching how we lead.

🖤💛❤️
