The Title Fits
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
It was good to put a face to the illnesses. The pain, grief, and sadness were real. Having the two points of view expressed was helpful because one got a better picture of what was really happening. There was no quick fix here but a determined, consistent support from the mother and the friend (future husband) that was key in her recovery. Eventual great counseling and medication also played their role. A truly helpful book.
Totally inspired me

This book changed my life forever and helped me get through my eating disorder and helped me to be accepting and loving to myself. A must read for anyone who suffers from eating disorder or bipolar disorder or both.
