This is an authoritative guide to understanding and helping a
teenager with anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa. It is designed
for parents of teens who have recently been diagnosed with an
eating disorder, or who are at risk of developing one, and for
other adults, such as teachers and guidance counselors, who are
regularly in contact with at-risk adolescents. The book combines
the latest scientific expertise available-including the newest
treatments and most up-to-date research findings on eating
disorders-with the practical wisdom of parents who have raised
teenagers with anorexia or bulimia. In clear and accessible
language, Dr. B. Timothy Walsh and V. L. Cameron explain exactly
what eating disorders are and describe their characteristics, as
well as signs and symptoms. They outline the right way to go about
getting a diagnosis if you suspect your child may have an eating
disorder, about when and where to get treatment, and about how to
navigate the healthcare system. There is also advice on how to
handle everyday life-both at home and at school-once your child is
diagnosed, and on how to communicate with your teen. Complete with
red flags to look out for and warnings on the dangers of doing
nothing, this book will help parents and other adults face and deal
effectively with adolescent eating disorders before they become
life-threatening.
