Eating disorders - what you need to know this #EatingDisordersAwarenessWeek.
#EDAW #EDAW2023 #EatingDisorders #EatingDisorder #EatingDisorderAwarenessWeek #EatingDisordersAwareness
1 in 5 people will be affected by mental illness in their lifetime. Of the 30 million Americans who struggle with an eating disorder, more than half face at least one other mental health issue.
Mental health remains widely misunderstood, and because of the shame and stigma associated with mental illness, few get the help they need. But everyone has mental health; learning to address stigma and talk about mental illness helps everyone.
This month, you can find us sharing awareness facts and resources on our social media - on Facebook, Twitter, TikTok, and Instagram. You can also join us at one of our upcoming events. eatingdisorderfoundation.org…
