If you're worried about your relationship with food or exercise, NEDA's 3-minute confidential online screening for eating disorders can help you or a friend determine if it's time to seek professional help. Early detection of the signs & symptoms of disordered eating and eating disorders increases a person’s chance for successful recovery.
Please note that the screening is not an official diagnosis of an eating disorder.
Please note that the screening is not an official diagnosis of an eating disorder.
If you're worried that a friend's Facebook or Instagram posts indicate they may be struggling with an eating disorder, Facebook's safety guide provides resources on how to recognize warning signs on social media and how to report a worrying post. The guide was developed in conjunction with NEDA and Nancy Zucker, PhD, Director of the Duke Center for Eating Disorders.
If you are interested in learning more about eating disorders, the media, and what you can do to help, here are some additional resources.
