Just Tell Her To Stop: Families Surviving an Eating Disorder
by Becky Henry
In a few months my book will be available for purchase: Just Tell Her To Stop: Stories of Families Surviving Eating Disorders. So many people have said, “I can’t wait to read all those parents’ stories, as well as the stories of those recovered and in recovery. May I see some of them ahead of publication?”
In interviewing over 40 mothers and fathers, sisters and brothers, I have written about wonderful ways they have coped with their own, their child’s, sibling’s or spouse’s eating disorder. I have also found an incredibly strong bond between families based on the similarity of how that person’s eating disorder affected others.
Family-to-Family Support
But most of all, I have learned that family members get great support and the feeling of reduced isolation by reading another family’s story, sharing in their challenge and realizing that they are NOT ALONE.
In my effort to connect families through truthful story sharing, I have learned so many challenges these families face. Some loved ones have permanent physical damage done by the eating disorder. Many marriages are profoundly stressed by a family member’s eating disorder and that claiming hope is a conscious choice. Despite everything, the families have all made the choice to keep joy in their lives.
All that said, I have decided to offer up single chapters that focus on one or more aspects of life with an eating disorder--but not focus on that, rather on how the family members tried to deal with the crisis and the person they love, while hating their behavior, their addiction to an eating disorder.
So, now that you can see you are NOT ALONE, select which chapter(s) you feel most fit your home situation and order them. I have kept the pricing very affordable so as to not add any more stress to your already stressed-out family.
You can read excerpts of each chapter. It is also very simple to order and only $4.97 per chapter and you save if you purchase more than one chapter.
