Weekend support Sessions

Weekend Support is a peer support session for the times when routine breaks down.

Weekends can bring more triggers, less structure, and harder moments. These sessions are here for that.

Sessions run on Friday and Saturday.

What To Expect

Each session is facilitated by a trained peer with lived experience of binge eating recovery.

Sessions focus on what happened, what is coming up, and how to move through the rest of the weekend.

You can use your session to:

  • Review binge eating episodes or urges that occurred over the weekend

  • Identify environmental or emotional triggers

  • Plan structured meals and self monitoring for the remaining weekend hours

  • Prepare for social events or unstructured time

  • Strengthen continuity before the week begins

Natalie

I could manage my eating during the week, but when the weekend came, everything would fall apart. It was hard to feel like I was doing well during the week and then not be okay on weekends. That was becoming an unhelpful, and unwelcome, part of my binge eating disorder story.

The weekend support sessions gave me a place to talk about what was happening and to understand the patterns that were showing up.

Why Weekend Support?

Weekends are harder. Routine breaks down, social events come up, and unstructured time can make things more difficult.

These sessions give you a place to check in during that time. You can use them on their own or alongside courses and other peer support
