"AWFUL!"

This place really is terrible and iv been in/under quite a few. If you are anorexic and want counselling or CBT this is completely dependant on your weight, any mental or emotional distress cast aside; the whole reason why you are ill in the first place.

To be as insensitive as possible in assessments anyone who is below average or average appearance therefore weight is given a book on how to overcome binge eating! I know others who have had the same. You have to be skeletal to come here!

Any care worker or clinician doesn’t have a clue, they have either been told the basics or made to read something to work there. It’s all a real shame because an Eating Disorders clinic in Cheltenham is really needed unfortunately certainly not this! It made both my friend and I worse.
