Group Reviews
I am a member of the What's Eating You eating disorder support group. I attend via Zoom. I am very grateful for this group for many reasons. It is available through Zoom on an evening when I am free. The time is perfect (for me) because it is a time period I struggle during and the group holds me accountable and gives me support during that time. The size of the group is kept on the smaller size, which I like because it gives more of a chance for people to share and build connection,and feel safe versus if it were a larger group. The facilitators are very kind and caring. They express empathy and when someone shares, I believe they feel heard (I know I do!.) They are encouraging and supportive and celebrate when we have "wins." Stephanie, the group leader, gives "homework" for us to do and we discuss it during the group. I really like this because It makes me think about things that I may not otherwise think of and challenge myself in different ways. Sometimes we just have "normal" group discussion, topics that members bring that they share to get support on. Stephanie also invites guest speakers on occasion. All in all the group has been a positive impact for me. I have always felt included and welcomed since the first time I joined. I look forward to attending each week. - Tina
For me, the group has meant not feeling alone anymore with my eating disorder, and I finally feel seen, heard and understood by others for the first time in the three decades + of my ED. The group has taught me that recovery is 100% possible as long as I put in the work but also that I am worthy no matter where I am in my journey. All of the ladies that I have met through zoom and the in-person meetings have been incredibly kind, caring, open, and have inspired me greatly. - Maria
I am so grateful for this group. I immediately felt welcome, listened to, supported. There’s no judgement, you bring what you can to the table, and nothing feels forced. - Stephanie
