Project day on eating disorders

This week, the students of the vocational grammar school dealt with the topic of eating disorders within the framework of health care. Inspired by the subject teacher Ms Schuster and the school social worker Ms Göbel in cooperation with the addiction counselling service Diako Thüringen, the young people learned about the three main forms: "anorexia", "bulimia" and "binge eating" and worked on various case studies. Posters were created, drawn and even poetry was written.

The Federal Centre for Health Education provides all-round information about the disease, which can be treated at first, at https://www.bzga-essstoerungen.de/.

Those affected and their relatives can get information and individual help at a local counselling centre.
