About This Group


The Lotus Collaborative offers a weekly support group, free of charge, for those active in their recovery from binge eating disorder. Our online support group is an opportunity to share experiences and feelings, learn new coping skills, and build a safe community of peers and supporters. No formal diagnosis of BED required.

Taboo Topics

Please refrain from talking in numbers (calories, clothing sizes, weights) as well as discussing exercising, types of exercise equipment; minutes spent doing, etc. We suggest instead of saying “I went walking for xxx minutes”  you could say “I overexercised” or instead of “I binged and purged xxx times with xxx foods “ you could say “I binged and purged last night.” 
We are aware that some clients have a history of significant sexual trauma. We therefore ask that those who wish to discuss sex do so in a respectful manner and not discuss sex in a casual, graphic, or lewd way. We may put an end to a discussion if staff assesses that the topic is being discussed in an unhelpful manner. ​

Who is Appropriate for this Group?

Appropriate members for this group are NOT: 1) actively suicidal or homicidal (i.e. thinking about hurting themselves or someone else), 2) currently in crisis, 3) severely physically or medically compromised and without the support of a treatment team or treatment program. If you are suicidal or in crisis, we encourage you to call the National Suicide Prevention Hotline (1-800-273-8255) or San Francisco Suicide Prevention (1-415-781-0500).
** Please note this a FREE ONLINE support group and NOT a regulated therapy group. This means the facilitator and participants may vary week to week. The group is open to the public and discussions may contain intense content not suitable for all audiences. ​
