I'll see if I can get some kind of video clip sent to me that I can stick on here or on Youtube rather than just relying on catchup TV.
The thing is, I always want to say EVERYTHING at once, so usually end up starting with (and no doubt filling up the allotted timeslot with) a non-starter or red herring. But today I get to see the producer's notes and I understand we'll be prepped for the interview, too.
I just want to get across something that will be useful to other parents who may be worrying that 'all is not quite right' with their son, but haven't a clue what to do about it.
To avoid them having to go through the massive learning curve that I went through which isn't ideal when you are also battling this crazy, new illness your son has contracted.
And of course "Ben" will be there, too, so he'll need to talk as well.
Want information on eating disorders in boys? Worried your son has an eating disorder? What are the signs of eating disorders in boys? In 2009 my 15-year-old son developed anorexia. Now aged 31 and with a MSc in Psychology he is recovered & working in mental health using his experiences to help others. I help to raise awareness of eating disorders in boys, point parents to helpful resources & talk about how eating disorders can traumatise families.
