Friends & Family Support Group

Recovering from an eating disorder is challenging for both the individual struggling with it, and their loved ones.  At times you may feel confused, frustrated, alone, or even completely helpless and we want to help.

Join Ramey Nutrition for a 15-week support group specifically designed to provide a safe place for the friends and family to share their experience and frustrations, and to receive the support that’s needed.  Our support group is a 15-week series that carries a loose structure that coincides with our Eating Disorder Support Group. This will help you support your loved one as they go through the process of recovery.

Topics covered:

• What to expect with recovery
• Trust & the Recovery Process
• Medical Complications & The re-feeding process
• The role of the family/friend/significant other
• Nutrition myths & Fad diets
• Diet Pills, Laxatives, & Diuretics
• Size, Shape, & Numbers
• Media, body image and how to be a part of the change

Group will meet Wednesday evening from 5-7pm on the following dates: (2/29/12, 3/07/12, 3/14/12, 3/21/12, 3/28/12, 4/04/12, 4/11/12, 4/18/12, 4/25/12, 5/02/12, 5/09/12, 5/16/12, 5/23/12, 5/30/12, 6/06/12).
