Grocery Shopping in Eating Disorder Recovery
Eating disorder recovery comes with many challenging tasks while adjusting back to life after treatment. For many clients, one of the most challenging is grocery shopping. Grocery shopping is a regular part of daily life, but if you have had an eating disorder or are currently in recovery, the grocery store can often be seen as a place filled with a lot of food and a lot of anxiety; a very stressful combination.
