So I usually wouldn’t be blogging until Monday but…
I have something rather personal I’d like to share with you.
Mon 27th Feb – Fri 5th Mar is Eating Disorders Awareness Week.
According to BEAT 1.6 million people suffer from diagnosed or un-diagnosed eating disorders throughout the UK.
Research has found that 20% of anorexia sufferers will die prematurely from their illness.
Bulimia is also associated with severe medical complications.
And binge eating disorder sufferers often experience the medical complications associated with obesity.
This video BARELY scratches the surface but hopefully it’s enough to help anyone struggling with an eating disorder to realize change is possible.
Or indeed anyone who is struggling with ANYTHING right now.
If I can change….you can change.
And it all starts with a SINGLE step.
It may be the hardest but it’s the 1st stage of recovery.
Here’s those numbers:
Adults Helpline: 0808 801 0677
Youthline: 0808 801 0711
You can find these numbers along with LOTS of other information by clicking on the link below:
P.s
Keep a little look out for the Evening Express tomorrow – you may just see a familiar face : )
