Abbotsford Family and Friends Support Group

The ABBOTSFORD FAMILY AND FRIENDS GROUP IS FOR FAMILY MEMBERS, partners and FRIENDS CONCERNED ABOUT A LOVED ONE WITH AN EATING DISORDER. It is a place where FAMILY MEMBERS AND FRIENDS (18+) come together in a confidential and SUPPORTIVE ENVIRONMENT.The groups provide an opportunity for people to share their stories, learn coping strategies and benefit from the support of other families in similar situations. Coming to a Support Group allows you to have some time to yourself and gives you the opportunity to openly talk about what is going on. Being among a group of people who can relate to your situation can ease the stress and isolation of supporting someone with an eating disorder. It can be a good way to care for yourself and ensure you are looking after your own mental health.
