Autism & Anorexia

Join us online for an informative session looking at strategies and tips for managing anorexia in individuals with autism.

Food and eating can be a huge issue for autistic people with sensory issues and anxiety can lead to a person having a very restricted diet.

We also touch on ADHD, because as autism is related to anoreixia, ADHD often co-occurs with autism.

Covering:

  • Sensory sensitivities and their role in eating
  • The link between autism, ADHD & anorexia
  • Factors that impact eating for autsitic people with anoreixa
  • What helps at home
  • What helps in treatment settings
