This year, BodyWhys, the Eating Disorders Association of Ireland have reported a 110% increase in men seeking help for eating distress.

Irish Men Share Their Experience Of Eating Disorders

00:00:00 / 00:00:00

While the perception is that it is something that typically affects women, one in four people who are living with an eating disorder identify as male.

A new Irish documentary, 'Unspoken', is now giving a voice to men who are living with an eating disorder.

Director of the documentary, Alan Bradley, joined Pamela Joyce on Dermot and Dave to chat about the three men who tell their stories, his experience of working with them, and his hopes that it will spark a larger conversation around eating disorders.

You can catch the chat by clicking play above and 'Unspoken' is on RTÉ One on the 18th of November at 10:15.

If you would like more information or support around disordered eating or eating distress, visit the BodyWhys website.
