Eating disorders support group in Geneva?

Dear all,


Anybody of you knows or can suggest an eating disorders support group in Geneva or nearby?


This should be a free group or something not expensive.


Thanks in advance.

I seem to remember hearing that there was a group meeting at the Anerican Church, so phone the church office.  You could also call the American International Women’s Club.  They used to have a list of English-speaking support groups for various disorders.


Best, R.

Overeating is a dependance like drinking or abusing substances. Never mind the substance of choice, the important is understanding the motivation to abuse. The groups help you identify the trigger and try to find another coping mechanism. It is a journey, to finding self and peace. It is worth it, if you work it.

Lida,
Well as Omegaman is a man, maybe you should include everyone and not be sexist? Even men have eating disorders, my disorder is I drink more than I eat, i refer to Hay_ comment that all excessiveness is a problem. I heard moderation in all things or you have an unbalance, not sure its all a 'Disorder'. Disorder can be used to exagerate and many opportuniistic business people love to use 'key words' to make you 'need' there help and services.

And the entrance to the Church Office and Hall is in rue Monthoux, along from the side entrance of “Hôtel d’Angleterre”.


For  church office hours, etc., go to the “Emmanuel Church, Geneva” website.

Someone has just thanked me for a two-year-old post on this thread so it is only now that I have read of my “appointment” to such exalted status.  I must take Oded and Nir to task for failing to inform me sooner and also, of course, for not increasing my emoluments.  This I shall do


without further delay.


Meantime, what would one do without one’s friends?


So many thanks and all the best,, R.
