If Your Adolescent Has an Eating Disorder is an authoritative guide
to understanding and helping a teenager with anorexia nervosa,
bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder, avoidant/restrictive food
intake disorder, or other eating disorders. 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
science-including the newest treatments and most up-to-date
research findings on eating disorders-with the practical wisdom of
parents who have been in the trenches raising teens with eating
disorders. Written in a clear and approachable style, Drs. B.
Timothy Walsh and Deborah R. Glasofer 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 help
if you suspect your child may have a problem, 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 and her or his siblings about issues
related to the eating disorder. Complete with red flags to look out
for, warnings on the dangers of doing nothing, and a comprehensive
list of additional resources, this book will help parents and other
adults face and deal effectively with adolescent eating disorders
before they become life-threatening.
