虽然人们越来越关注大学里的心理健康问题，但饮食失调学生的经历却受到较少的关注。这是一个问题，因为缺乏适当支持的有害后果是深远的。本研究采用质性研究，调查学生对支援服务的可得性、可及性及适切性的看法。100名有ED经验的大学生完成了一项在线调查。另有18名学生完成了半结构化面试。描述性数据与定性数据分析一起报告。确定了三个首要主题：支持意识、寻求帮助的信心和早期服务经验。大多数学生都知道通过他们的家庭医生和大学咨询服务的支持。很少有确定的ED具体支持来源。寻求帮助的障碍包括自我羞辱和服务提供方面的差距。早期的服务经验往往是负面的，问题包括：难以获得服务，缺乏艾德的具体支持和家庭和大学之间的照顾的连续性。在确保ED学生获得他们在大学茁壮成长所需的支持方面取得了实质性进展。虽然存在良好的治疗方法很重要，但获得这些治疗方法的途径同样重要。随着大学越来越认识到围绕学生心理健康采取行动的必要性，注意力也必须针对ED和提供特定服务。
While there is increased concern around mental health problems in universities, the experience of students with eating disorders (EDs) has received less attention. This is problematic as the detrimental consequences of a lack of adequate support are profound. A qualitative study was adopted to investigate students’ perspectives of the availability, accessibility and suitability of support services. One hundred university students with experience of EDs completed an online survey. A further 18 students completed semi-structured interviews. Descriptive data are reported alongside analysis of qualitative data. Three overarching themes were identified; awareness of support, confidence in asking for help and early experiences with services. Most students were aware of support through their GP and university counselling services. Few identified ED-specific sources of support. Barriers to help-seeking included self-stigma and gaps in service availability. Early experiences with services were often negative, problems included; difficulty accessing services, a lack of ED specific support and continuity of care between home and university. There is substantive progress to be made in ensuring that students with EDs receive the support they need to thrive at university. While it is important that good treatments exist, the pathway to accessing these treatments equally important. As universities increasingly recognise the need for action around student mental health attention must also be directed towards EDs and the provision of specific services.
