Irish society went into one of the most stringent lockdowns in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and barring a few weeks, remains highly restricted at time of writing. This has produced a wide range of challenges for those affected by eating disorders, as well as treatment services and Bodywhys, The Eating Disorders Association of Ireland. Current research indicates that COVID-19 has impacted across three key areas-the experience of those with an eating disorder, the experience of service provision, and the impact on the family situation. Drawing on monitoring and evaluation data gathered by Bodywhys, this paper details the challenges faced by those affected by eating disorders in Ireland and how the organisation responded to these challenges, providing support in various forms to people with eating disorders and their families.
由于新冠疫情，爱尔兰社会在2020年3月进入了最严格的封锁状态之一，并且除了几周时间外，在撰写本文时仍然受到高度限制。这给饮食失调患者、治疗服务机构以及爱尔兰饮食失调协会“Bodywhys”带来了广泛的挑战。当前研究表明，新冠疫情在三个关键领域产生了影响——饮食失调患者的经历、服务提供的情况以及对家庭状况的影响。本文利用“Bodywhys”收集的监测和评估数据，详细阐述了爱尔兰饮食失调患者所面临的挑战，以及该组织如何应对这些挑战，以各种形式为饮食失调患者及其家庭提供支持。
