In terms of accessibility, the online mode of delivery is indispensable: for many reasons not everyone can access resources in-person.   

   I decided that enough was enough and I signed up for my first online session. During that time I never once felt judged. Instead I felt accepted, understood and surrounded by people who I could relate to on so many levels.   

   I really enjoyed the community. I feel less alone.   

   Eating disorders thrive in loneliness. The mentors in the programs share assurances and personal stories and suddenly the world isn’t so lonely anymore. The battle against the eating disorder doesn’t seem so big.   

   I felt safe. The facilitators were all wonderful in keeping the conversation going, but always allowing and encouraging feedback and comments from the participants.
