Eating Disorders Support Group
Eating disorders are marked by an obsessive need to control the intake and/or purging of food. This community is dedicated to those struggling on the road to recovery. Join to discuss your experience with others and find support. Get advice, ask questions, and meet others who are going through similar struggles.
Just a little question. I've been reading through random posts on this community and I was wondering... is this community Pro-Eating Disorders or Pro-Recovery? Or is it something else? I'm new here so please be kind to me:)

My experience has been definately pro-recovery. I find 99% of the people on daily strength to be supportive and kind.
