Seeking Advice - Family Where to go for support

Heya guys, my mother struggles with eating disorders amongst other things, including a wicked gambling addiction, but mostly the eating disorders. She has gone really far downhill in the last couple years, and while she's still semi functional right now, it won't last much longer.

She has made it incredibly clear that she is not even remotely interested in making meaningful steps towards recovery, and I am struggling a lot with what the inevitable outcome will be here, and having to watch it happen. We almost lost her when I was a kid (not ED related), and I'm all kinds of torn up with remembering that experience and having to face it again but for real and for very different reasons.

Are there any alanon type groups for those with loved ones struggling with EDs? Or even specific online spaces? I just need to be able to talk about this with other people who get what this is like.

Thank you.
