The relationship between autism and eating disorders is often
overlooked or misunderstood. Written by two experienced clinicians
working with young people, Autism and Eating Disorders in Teens
covers topics including identification of both conditions,
diagnosis and the recovery process, challenging current thinking
and promoting new ways of working to promote treatment and
awareness. Autism and eating disorders often present in similar
ways, whether through restrictive or selective eating behaviours,
or rigid or obsessive thought patterns. As a result, individuals
may receive treatment for one condition with the other - although
present - going undiagnosed. This is a practical guide for the
adults supporting this group of teens, recommending changes in
policy and practice in order to improve the care of young people
experiencing these conditions. Drawing on in-depth case studies
highlighting the need for young people and their families to feel
understood and listened to, the authors show how we can empower
these young people to reach their full emotional and physical
potential.
