Anorexia Nervosa
Do you often feel on edge around meal times?
Are you afraid of certain food out of fear of weight gain? Do you avoid foods higher in calories? Does dining out stress you out? Do these thoughts and feelings stop you from living your life?
We’re here to support you.
Do any of these sound familiar?
You have trouble concentrating and focusing at work or school.
You struggle deciding what to eat.
You weigh yourself frequently.
You’re struggling to sleep through the night.
You avoid social events that involve restaurant food.
You find yourself thinking about food and your body often.
You check calories, macros or nutrition labels often.
If you relate to some of these things, you may be struggling with anorexia.
Health doesn’t have a “look” and neither do eating disorders.
You cannot determine whether or not someone is struggling just by looking at them.
Symptoms of Anorexia Nervosa may include:
avoiding certain food groups or skipping meals altogether
body dissatisfaction, which includes body checking & obsessively weighing or measuring oneself
calorie counting
food rules
excessive exercise
sleep disturbance
mood alterations
social withdrawal
loss of menstrual cycle
