Eating Disorder Awareness Week - What comes after?
My favorite thing about Eating Disorder Awareness Week is that for one week, people are talking about eating disorders in a way that inspires hope for change. At the end of every February, everywhere I look I see posts about the prevalence, the symptoms, the experience of having an eating disorder, and what we can do to prevent the development of these conditions. And then we go back to the status quo – the silence, the barrage of diet and wellness information coming at us, the weight stigmatization and the anti-fat bias.
