This week is national eating disorder awareness week. The focus by Bodywhys the National Eating Disorder Association is BED ( Binge Eating disorder ) but all eating disorders deserve to have air time and all stories should be heard because sadly this is an issue that is impacting more and more people and families as lockdown continues.
Everyone is worthy and deserves help and Sheila Naughton has spoken to Jess, who is an ED fighter from Longford about her journey through recovery from anorexia.
Jess has been fighting for around 10 years and while lockdown has had an impact and seen her move back a little into her disorder she remains hopeful now that she will push forward and is making plans for the future outside of lockdown.
