EDANZ: Helping the helpers

EDANZ is run by parents, caregivers, and people who have fully recovered from eating disorders. Although we don't have medical qualifications, we've experienced the challenges of eating disorders in real life.

We offer support, help and resources to people caring for loved ones with an eating disorder, but we are not able to offer treatment or medical advice for patients themselves. If you have, or are concerned you may have an eating disorder, we urge you to visit your GP. Click here for advice on speaking to your GP for the first time.

If you need advice about someone you care about, get in touch now

Full recovery from an eating disorder is possible.

�� Parenting through an eating disorder isn't what any of us anticipated and it often defies the norms of traditional parenting. The path is filled with uncertainty, fear, and moments where we question our strength. But amidst the challenges, one thing should always remain steadfast: our love. This journey demands a different kind of parenting — a love that's patient, persistent, and profoundly compassionate. It's about showing up, even when it's hard. It's understanding that healing isn't linear, and that our presence and unwavering support can be the anchor our loved ones so desperately need �� #edrecovery #recoveryispossible�� #eatingdisorderrecovery #eatingdisordersuppport #fullrecovery #recovery #edrecovery
