Hope With Eating Disorders is a book of supportive ways to help patients and their families deal with the darkness of eating disorders and come into the light.
A tough topic, this is a thoughtful book on the subject
Very informative and interesting. Gets right to the point and could see it would be a useful source of information for those dealing with this subject
Good book about a family and the eating disorder that tried to take over. Also, the unconventional ways of responding to the eating disorders that affect the person plagued with it. Understanding it’s not the person but the disorder we are dealing with. Well written and full of information.
Lynn Crilly is giving families a look into their struggle and what they found along the way.
This isn't for someone who is struggling due to the fact most already know the information and second the have to choose to change.
The author uses the same information that almost every single book discussing eating disorders. Why it starts, how it starts and the fact that those struggling with an eating disorder they don't see what others who love them see.
Hope with Eating Disorders will give reader insight with other who have struggle with the addiction giving readers knowledge that they are not alone in the struggle.
Personal feelings:
I don't agree with eating disorders are not a life sentence and that a full and complete recovery is possible. As someone who has struggled with an Eating Disorder since I was 12 years old I think you don't overcome or recovery but you learn how to cope better in life. It isn't a life sentence but it is something that can come back to life when a person least expects it. It is an addiction.
