This past year, and living through a pandemic, has ultimately changed our lives forever. It has caused increased levels of stress, anxiety, depression, and isolation. Add to that a great reliance on a virtual world filled with misinformation and societal pressure, food safety issues and insecurity, an influx of body identification and you have the perfect storm for a mental health crisis and an explosion of people who are struggling to gain control of something and as a result, a surge in eating disorders. I have been a Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist (RDN) in private practice since 1990 where I specialize in eating disorders and felt compelled to put together this book of relational essays. When I decided to write about eating disorders, I took a different approach. Instead of scientific data and test cases, I gathered my patient's stories together to paint a vivid and relatable picture. In addition, I have included 23 pieces from recovered patients, parents of recovered patients, and professionals I've had the pleasure of knowing, with their permission.My intent on putting this book of relational essays together is to help those of you who struggle WITH or WITHOUT food to know that you are not alone in the world. Most people just keep their eating problems hidden. They do not express themselves because they feel people will think they are crazy or because other people just do not "get it."People struggle every day. Unfortunately, most people with eating disorders struggle internally and feel misunderstood. People in their lives can not relate to the inner dialogue and beliefs they have, so they struggle alone. My patients are so frustrated with the messages society and the media have insinuated that we need to be robotic or less than human. In this one size doesn't fit the same world we live in, I have found a way to provide stories that are truly relational so each person can feel special in their skin. …

Living through a pandemic has ultimately changed our lives forever. Add to this the fact that people spent more time online with social media, the result became a mental health crisis and an explosion of people who are struggling to gain control of something and as a result, a surge in eating disorders. While not responsible for eating disorders, celebrities, influencers, and social media played a significant role in this result. There isn't just one face for eating disorders. Just like any disease, eating disorders are equal opportunity. Although my patients were from different ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds, the story of their inner struggle was universal. I believe by sharing these relational essays, I can help others see themselves in these essays and know there is help and opportunity for healing.
People struggle every day. Unfortunately, most people with eating disorders struggle internally and feel misunderstood. People in their lives cannot relate to their beliefs and inner dialogue, so they quietly go through this inner struggle alone. In my private practice since 1990, many patients have felt comfortable enough to share their personal stories and express their inner struggles with me. When I decided to write about eating disorders, I took a different approach. Instead of test cases, I gathered my patients' stories together to paint a vivid and relatable picture of the patients I have had the pleasure and privilege to help. I've put together this book of relational essays to provide a personal feel for those who struggle so they know they're not alone. In addition, I have included 23 pieces from recovered patients, parents of recovered patients and professionals I've had the pleasure of knowing, with their permission.
