Book Synopsis

There are a thousand books about eating disorders, taking everything from gender to age into account. But they have a habit of assuming that you''re neurotypical, and that your brain works in a very specific way.

Not exactly helpful if yours doesn''t!

In this essential self-help guide, Rachel Clark shares what she''s learned from her own experiences as an autistic and ADHD young person with anorexia, and how you can use it for your own recovery. She explores how eating disorders can be a coping mechanism for the stress of a neurotypical world, and how autism can both create the ideal environment for an eating disorder to develop, but also provide key tools to overcome it. Practical exercises help you get to grips with your ED in a way that suits your brain, and advice from direct experience supports you in advocating for yourself and creating an environment where you can save your own life on your own terms.
