As a 53-year-old man struggling with an eating disorder, I know how daunting it can be to seek treatment. The stigma and shame surrounding eating disorders can make it even more challenging to find the help we need. However, I want to encourage my fellow men out there to not give up hope. There are amazing treatment facilities out there specifically designed to help individuals like us. I recently sought help and I was amazed by the compassion and support I received. It’s never too late to take that first step towards healing. Let’s lean on each other for support and remind ourselves that recovery is possible. We deserve to live healthy, fulfilling lives, and there’s no shame in seeking the help we need. Stay strong, my friends.
