As a sufferer with anorexia myself this account gave me the hope I needed to continue with recovery. I would HIGHLY RECCOMMEND this book to anyone wanting to know more about what it's like on the inside of an eating disorder. The spiritual aspect of recovery is vital for full wellness to be achieved, this is well presented in this book.
I found this book on recommendation from a counsellor and it turned out to be life changing for me. The author has a genuine insight and understanding of the mental and emotional battles that wages in the mind of someone struggling with eating disorders. She delivers a residential eating disorders recovery course in Swansea and travels worldwide to minister to people in need. A great book for all ages.
