In one way or another, everyone has been manipulated by glossy magazines, beauty gurus, societal standards, and diet culture into hating their bodies. We have put our existence through immense turmoil of starvation and unrealistic health regimes without considering how they can impact us in the long run. You might have fallen prey to those evils, but it is never too late to liberate yourself.

Diet fads and workout trends are exactly what they sound like–fleeting, impersonal, and ultimately frustrating. What “everyone else is doing” doesn’t work because it’s not tailored to each woman’s unique needs. Fads aren’t answers–they just create more drama where you’ve already got plenty.

The book features a range of case studies while addressing core issues such as self-harm, hallucinations and the threat of suicide, as well as related topics such as depression and psychosis. Illustrating the psychological roots to eating disorders, it places therapy within hospital, clinical and multi-disciplinary contexts, as well as displaying how psychoanalytic theory can be applied across various settings and in different teams.
