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.
You were both great! I'm glad you emphasized the difficulty getting GPs to take it seriously and accessing treatment. And I'm really impressed by Ben's courage. It's things like these that can really help other boys (or girls) and parents out there who might be just noticing a problem, or feeling alone, or not knowing where to get help, etc...Well done!
Fantastic! Both of you were so good - and incredibly brave of 'Ben'. You must be really proud of him. And the points you made came across so clearly.
