Hotline support for eating disorders and body image issues is available in Mexico

If you're always disatisfied with the way your body looks and you've tried to control how it looks in harmful ways, then you may have an eating disorder. There are 3 hotlines in Mexico that help with body image and eating problems. If these symptoms sound familiar, reach out for free support:

  • Trying to control your body weight/shape by vomiting, laxative abuse, or excessive exercise.
  • Shifting food around on your plate so it looks like you’ve eaten more than you have.
  • Fear of gaining weight and becoming larger.
  • Excessive thinking about food, eating, and body weight or shape.
  • Feeling guilty, ashamed, and disgusted after eating too much or after eating the “wrong” foods.
  • Being overly cautious of food portion size, especially about eating "too much."
  • Dizziness and potentially fainting.
  • Distorted body image: thinking you’re overweight when you’re a normal weight or underweight.

You may feel so ashamed of your body and your eating habits that you want to hide away and disengage from the world. It may be hard to open up about how you're feeling because you may think that you'll be misunderstood.

It can be hard to deal with the feelings of shame and guilt that so often accompany negative body image and disordered eating. Admitting that you've lost control and that you need help may feel harder than keeping your problems to yourself.

If you feel like you might need support with your body image or eating disorders, try reaching out to a hotline in Mexico. It's free and confidential.
