PRODUCT INFORMATION
Summary
A raw and honest insight into the life of an Autistic person with a severe and enduring eating disorder
Description
I was diagnosed with anorexia nervosa at the age of sixteen. When I had just turned eighteen, I was admitted to hospital for treatment. After nine weeks on a mental health ward I was discharged, but I was far from recovered.
This is the tale of my continuing battle with Anorexia Nervosa, which has taken over half of my life so far.
Critic Reviews
A Cautionary Tale is an incredibly vulnerable and insightful lived experience account of a non-binary late diagnosed Autistic's decades long battle with anorexia nervosa. It is also a scathing rebuke of mainstream anorexia nervosa treatment programs and the deep enduring harm that these can cause. It is a call to action for clinicians in this country to know and do better when supporting their clients with anorexia nervosa.
I had the privilege to read an advanced copy of Hannah's book and would love to see this in as many hands as possible.
