There is a book on it actually. I was anorexic for years in my teens and early 20s but never the super dangerous kind if that makes sense...It was never diagnosed because I always managed to stay right at almost low normal. Anyway..I've been eating healthy for years but gained 40 lbs on lithium making the body image more of an issue.
My therapist suggested I go get The Body Image Workbook by Thomas F. Cash PHD. I can't say if it works or not yet since we're working on chapter/step 1 this week lol. But it seems like a well thought out and put together book and my T says it works.
