Eating Disorder Clinic Near Me

Here in America, approximately 20 million women and 10 million men will experience some form of an eating disorder at some point in their lifetimes. These illnesses can come with a myriad of complications because they often have a profound effect on not only someone’s physical appearance, but also practically every organ system. If you are looking for a hotline or an eating disorder clinic, we have more information for you below.

Eating Disorder Hotlines

If you are worried about yourself or a loved one struggling with an eating disorder, there are several hotlines you should consider contacting. In fact, the National Eating Disorders Association offers a few different ways to reach a hotline. These ways include texting, calling, or even instant messaging. A representative is available to text with on Mondays through Thursdays, from 3:00 PM until 6:00 PM Eastern Time, and you can reach them via phone call on Mondays through Thursdays between 11:00 AM and 9:00 PM Eastern Time, or on Fridays between 11:00 AM and 5:00 PM Eastern Time. Lastly, they are available for online chat between 9:00 AM and 9:00 PM Eastern Time on Mondays through Thursdays, and on Fridays from 9:00 AM until 5:00 PM. If you are unable to reach someone, you can always leave a message and they will get back to you. 

However, if you or a loved one is in a state of crisis, you can also text “NEDA” to 741-741 and reach a properly trained volunteer at the Crisis Text Line.
