Your questions about eating disorders ANSWERED!
Eating Disorders Families Australia runs multiple online eating disorder support groups to support the carers of people diagnosed with eating disorders ranging from anorexia and bulimia to food avoidance disorder and avoidant-restrictive food intake disorder, also known as ARFID.
EDFA's lived experience forum moderators asked support group members for their top questions and concerns and we have invited EDFA Psychologist Chris Fowler onto the Strong Enough podcast to answer those questions.
Chris is the Program Director at EDFA's Fill The Gap counselling service - a one-on-one free online counselling service for carers to seek support with a simple phone call - and he has more than a decade of experience to draw on in hospital and helpline settings.
In this episode Chris discusses member concerns around "saying the wrong thing", he offers his best advice on how to support people with eating disorders and explains why relapses shouldn't be seen as failures. He answers questions about self care, about the eating disorder recovery process and why support groups can be helpful for everyone in the family.
