Anorexia
affects both men and women, of all age groups and social classes,
internationally. For both the sufferer and the friends and family who
care for them, the impact of the illness can be devastating. However, it
can be treated effectively using cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT).
This
self-help book provides support to battle this notorious and widespread
eating disorder. It was originally developed by the author as a manual
for patients with anorexia at his eating disorders clinic in The Royal
Edinburgh Hospital. Using CBT techniques, he explains the many forms and
causes of anorexia nervosa and helps the reader:
Challenge negative thinking and behaviour
Improve their body image
Develop coping strategies for the future
These clinically proven tools form a complete recovery programme, with practical exercises and worksheets.
Overcoming
self-help guides use clinically proven techniques to treat
long-standing and disabling conditions, both psychological and physical.
Many guides in the Overcoming series are recommended under the Reading
Well Books on Prescription scheme.
