How do I tell someone I have an eating disorder?

Telling someone your concerns about the eating disorder and about recovery can be daunting. We've put together an advice page to help you have conversations that will give you the encouragement and support you deserve on the path to recovery.

I'm scared to tell my parents/carers I might have an eating disorder

It's often challenging to decide whether we should trust those around us when we're facing difficulties. By speaking to a trusted adult about your struggles, it can help alleviate some challenges that you may be carrying alone.

It’s very important to access treatment as early as possible, as earlier treatment means a greater chance of fully recovering from your eating disorder. Your first point of contact is likely to be your GP.
