Services for Men
Struggles with food aren’t only a “women’s issue”, and eating disorders do not discriminate by gender. Many men turn to food in response to stress, emotions, or societal pressures, but are less likely to seek help. Whether it’s emotion-triggered eating, restrictive dieting, or irregular eating habits due to work stress, these challenges can impact both physical and mental health. This is why we provide services for men.
Services for Men: Overcoming Food and Body Pressures
Men are often taught to push through challenges without asking for help. The pressures of diet culture, combined with the expectation to be lean and muscular, can lead to restrictive dieting or overexercising. These struggles aren’t commonly discussed in male spaces, so many men don’t recognize them as a problem. Moreover, many men prioritize other things over self-care, which can result in skipping meals, using food as stress relief, relying on fast-food options, and ignoring hunger cues. These habits, while seemingly harmless, can disrupt metabolism, energy, and emotional health over time.
Healing a relationship with food isn’t about willpower—it’s about understanding the root causes of habits. Addressing issues like emotional eating and poor eating habits requires self-awareness and kindness, not shame. Seeking help is not about losing control; it’s about regaining mastery over habits that support both body and mind.
