Do you suspect that your loved one has an eating disorder, or have you received the diagnosis already? The reality of eating disorders can feel devastating, but you need not feel despondent. When you are desperate and hopeless, you need honest, practical, everyday insight to help you understand the situation. Above all, you are looking for direction and hope. You want to know if the situation can turn around. Is there recovery and healing? This book will offer you hope. It will also expose the reality of eating disorders and shed light on how they take hold in the mind of the sufferer. You will come to understand your role as a witness and be guided through the feelings of guilt that most people experience. Your love and your constant, non-judgemental presence can be the strength your loved one needs to guide them through recovery. There is a lot of ignorance around eating disorders, and sufferers are often stigmatized, so many families don’t know where to turn to and suffer in silence. This book explains the basics of anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder in an easy to understand language. This book is not about theory; it has a practical approach. It includes warning signs, physiological, behavioral and psychological symptoms, and also debunks the common myths around eating disorders. It also offers you guidance on how to handle your loved one, and how to cope with a situation you probably don’t understand. There are no easy answers for a person who loves someone who has an eating disorder, and this book does not claim to offer any easy solutions. It is a practical guide to beginning to understand a complicated mental illness that can, with the right approach, patience and love get turned around. Your loved one can recover and go into recovery. If your loved one has the right attitude, is offered love and support by family and friends, and keeps to a daily recovery program, recovery can be life-long, and they can lead a happy and healthy life.
