During the past few years, the prevalence of eating disorders has increased in Pakistan. Eating
disorders are not a lifestyle choice, a diet gone wrong or a cry for attention. Eating disorders are
serious mental illnesses that affect approximately millions of individuals in our country and still
remain undiagnosed. Early intervention efforts aimed to increase body acceptance and promote body
positivity can reduce disordered eating symptoms as well as help to create an environment that
encourages healthy recovery.
Eating Disorders Association of Pakistan has launched the 1st body positivity support android mobile
application of Pakistan which helps you to screen yourself and your family for eating disorders and
promote positive thoughts, body positivity and self-acceptance through various activities. The app is
available on google play store.
Join us for supporting our body positivity campaign at “Body Positivity Fashion Runway: Combating
Eating Disorders & Breaking the Stereotypes” on February 11th , 2023 at Islamabad, Pakistan. Limited
tickets are available. Click to register for the event:
