I've been dipping into this blog recently for one reason and another and am wondering if anyone still reads this blog? Please let me know if you do. Bev xx
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.

I read it back in the day. Sometimes I look at things like this (i.e. stuff that was regularly updated but a long time ago) to see whats been going on if anything.

ReplyDeleteThis is really weird but I am currently suffering with Anorexia and Bulimia. I have been looking for books about males with eating disorders and found yours. I’m currently 21, in college and have been struggling for as long as I can remember but It has recently gotten very bad. Your son Ben and I have very similar experiences and made me feel alot less alone. I eventually found the FEAST website and then found my way here. I am still very much struggling but wanted to say Thank you because your book made me feel seen and not like some weird freak. The support you gave your son is so admirable and I wish I had that in my life. Anyways, Thank you again!
