What are Eating Disorders?
Eating disorders can be debilitating and have a severe mental and physical affect. Eating disorders are a serious mental health condition, and as well as putting your child's life at risk by suicide, they can lead to long term physical effects such as a weakened immune system, high blood pressure, hormone disruption and infertility. They can be caused by factors such as social media teaching children to place a high value on looks or even being criticised at some point in the past about their body shape or weight. They feel under pressure to look a certain way, and don't feel as though they can live up to expectations.How We Can Help
