Eating Disorders Self-Solved
When I was in my late teens, I managed to solve my own eating disorders (anorexia and then bulimia). I solved my eating disorders as one would solve a mathematical equation involving psychological variables. To recover, I did not need to change who I was. Rather, I taught myself how to use my personal strengths (the ones that I had used to drive myself to the depths of my illness) to ‘turn the bus around’ and get even better at putting it behind me. In doing this, I discovered that you can regain that same carefree attitude towards food, that you had as a child.
