Book Description
They always ask, why? They ponder because they can't fathom doing what we do to ourselves--we are, quite literally, dying to be thin--they don't understand the illness because they don't understand the pain. Joanne's memoir tells the story of one woman's struggle with anorexia and bulimia, depression, and other mental illnesses. It steps into her disordered mind and shows what life is like inside a toxic household, the stigma many patients continue to face, in and out of treatment, and the harsh reality of an eating disorder. Once you tell them, they suddenly don't want to know. If you do, I'll tell you.
