Eating Disorder Treatment Waitlist Cross-Sectional Survey
About this study
Are you on a waitlist for adult (18+) psychological treatment for an eating disorder in Australia? This includes outpatient treatment from an eating disorder clinic, treatment from a private psychologist or a day program for anorexia nervosa (typical/atypical), bulimia nervosa (typical/atypical) and/or binge eating disorder. If yes, we would like to hear from you! Waiting lists for specialist treatment of eating disorders can be very long. By participating in the study, you will be helping us gain an understanding about the lived experience of being on a waitlist.
