A comprehensive, practical and step-by-step guide to the process of recovery, recounting the author's personal battle with anorexia and her subsequent recovery. Different techniques are explored and clinical advice is provided, making this an essential book for sufferers, and their friends, family and carers.
Anorexia is the third most common chronic illness in developed societies - ten times more common than insulin-dependent diabetes. It causes severe depression, psychological distress, family disruption and physical morbidity - and has the highest mortality rate of a functional psychiatric illness. The average length of an eating disorder is five years. 20 percent of sufferers will die, and far fewer than half the remainder will make a full recovery. Anorexia is a mysterious, complex illness. So is understanding it. This book helps identify the problem and provides a lucid step-by-step guide through the recovery process.
