You don’t have to reach a certain weight or level of physical illness before seeking support for an eating disorder.
Eating disorders can affect people at any weight, and the seriousness of an eating disorder isn’t determined by weight alone. If eating, exercise, body image or thoughts about food are having a significant impact on your life, relationships, physical health or emotional wellbeing, it’s worth seeking professional support.
At Orri, we look at the whole person rather than relying on weight alone. An assessment helps us understand your symptoms, physical health, circumstances and current level of support, so we can recommend the most appropriate pathway.
