It’s Eating Disorder Awareness Week – Do you know the difference between disordered eating and eating disorders? It’s not an easy distinction to make, but put simply, everyone has disordered eating at times, for all sorts of reasons and this is normal human behaviour. Some people, however, find a way of coping with difficult emotions through certain food and eating behaviours. Eating disorders can occur at any body size and are very often not reported. Often the eating disorder can change or cycle from one type of behaviour (eg restriction) to another (eg binge eating) with or without other compensatory activities like purging or over-exercising. Types of eating disorders may appear quite different to each other but they actually have a lot in common. There can be a lot of shame, which sadly will often stop people looking for help.

Tomorrow is the start of Eating Disorders Awareness Week - a week-long campaign that aims to shed light on the complexities of eating disorders, including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder, ARFID and others. After many years in general nutrition, I have been working in this area for the past 5 years and I now see more clients presenting with eating disorders than any other dietary issue. I rarely post on social media but this is a topic I feel passionately about and I will be writing a short piece each day to help raise awareness as well as sharing events that are on. Please share and feel free to comment. Let's start the conversation and reduce the stigma associated with eating disorders.
