Eating Disorders and Support for Young People

If you are worried about yourself or perhaps someone you know that might have an eating disorder, seek your GP's help as soon as you can.  It can be hard to admit you have a problem and to ask for help, so it might be easier to bring a friend or loved one with you to the appointment.  The GP will ask some questions about your eating habits, how you are feeling and will check your overall health and weight.  If the GP thinks you may have an eating disorder you can be referred to a specialist for help and support.
