Increasing numbers of people have a problem with eating disorders
and poor body image. Anorexia, bulimia and compulsive eating all
bring their own distressing social and health problems, while a
distorted body image can result in a severely restricted life. In
this book, Christine Craggs-Hinton explains clearly the social
pressures behind the need to be an ideal shape, and how we can
fight back. She also examines why some people see themselves as
overweight or ugly although they are normal, healthy, and the right
body weight and size for their sex, age and build. Topics covered
include: - the role of the media in creating unrealistic portraits
of how we should look - the importance of self-esteem, and how to
boost it - body dysmorphic disorder (BDD) and its link with media
influence - alcoholism: also a problem of low self-esteem - and its
link with eating disorders - tackling negative thoughts - dealing
with anxiety, and how to relax - practical exercises to get back to
a healthy relationship with food Recovery from eating disorders and
poor body image is possible, so start today!
