My new gf just opened up to me and told me that she has BED. She's trying to seek help but where we're from, therapy is really expensive. How do i show support or help her keeping in mind that we don't live together. I also found this self treatment CBT by the NAADAC that could help her, but how can i bring it up without offending or hurting her?

Hello, that is really kind and compassionate of you to want to help. Is this something you have brought up with her yet, letting her know you are wanting to support her? Are you able to ask her what she is comfortable with right now? These types of conversations and questions are ways that might try and help find out and gauge where her comfort level with that might be.
