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.

My latest guest blog - for NEDA in the States
I am thrilled to have been guest blogging for NEDA (National Eating Disorder Association) in the States about our story: read it here. I've also been guest blogging for other eating disorder sites, too, and Mumsnet, and when I get a moment I will paste in the links here. Bit busy today, having just returned from a lovely day with one of the mums who contributed her family's (positive ending!) story to my new book When Anorexia Came To Visit and who found resources like FEAST and the Around The Dinner Table forum via this blog, well over a year ago.
