Self-help is an important part of managing any health condition. Guided self-help (self-help guided by your GP or another professional) is also a treatment of choice for certain eating disorders such as Binge Eating Disorder.
Self-help is about taking positive steps to become knowledgeable about your health concerns, discover which practical solutions work for you, and develop your resilience. It makes you more confident in managing your health.
