Looking at prevention and early intervention offered powerful insights into how we can shape a better future for young people with eating disorders.

Make your own circle of control for during the Christmas period.

Radical acceptance is the ability to accept situations that are outside of your control without judging them, which reduces the suffering they cause.

You can learn how to practice radical acceptance by accepting things for what they are and acknowledging your emotions without denying, avoiding, or ignoring the situation. It can be an effective way to process your feelings and manage difficult experiences.

*Pay attention to what triggers your resistance to acceptance; notice when you can't accept something and when it seems like you are fighting against what is happening?

*Think about what you would do if you could accept what happened/ is happening (and then do those things as though you have already reached acceptance).

*Imagine what things would be like if you accepted the situation.

The Mental Health Commission of Ireland 2025 unannounced inspection of NEDRC resulted in 100% compliance with regulations. While this is important and we are proud of our exceptional team, what is REALLY important to us is our delivery of care, treatment and client outcomes.
We are so proud of our clients, their efforts, work, vulnerability, willingness (once they get to know us ☺️), strengths and trust (sometimes, initially, blind trust), they show up with each day.
As much as an eating disorder can be "stubborn", we are too and we don't give up 💜 there is always another way (and not just the buzz word "client-centered"!). We work with our clients to find that way.

One of our fabulous Occupational Therapists (OTs) presented at the OT conference in Japan with the theme of "Occupational Therapy in action".
Providing the importance and benefits of OT in eating disorders treatment and how it works in NEDRC in our separate kitchen, dining room, tea room and Occupational Therapy rooms.

We are very proud to continue contributing to eating disorders treatment, recovery, research and education not just on a national but also international level.
Well done NEDRC team 👏

International Men's Day 2025

*Blokes, fellas, mates, bros, pals, lads, boys, men, guys, males*

We see you, we're sorry society still encourages an unhealthy or unrealistic idea of masculinity. You are not a machine, it's not weak to speak. Please share how you're feeling with someone you trust and/ or a professional.

When others perceive that your success or achievements are over taking theirs, they may feel it undermines their own. For some, this can awaken a negative mindset, possibly even resentment. It can shine a light on the work they need to do.

Acknowledge it but surround yourself with those who support, encourage and cheer you on.
