Compare your thighs squashed in the sitting position to someone sitting next to you. Yours must not be bigger. Can you control your eating? Are you planning your next binge or are you strong enough to abstain? Ugh! You are disgusting and everybody knows it.
Welcome to the mind of an eating disorder! In this role-play, Ed is a homunculus (a tiny being) in the brain helping his protégés navigate their fight against eating. This book is a collection of his commentaries on his mission along with notes on one particular protégé, the author written under the guise of Lauren. Ed makes sure to tell Lauren how fat and ugly she is through her binges, her 32-inch waistline, and even through her breasts that develop too soon. Ed gladly saves the day! He explains his sales pitch, how he came to be, how he uses psychological findings to his advantage, his methods for losing weight, how he uses God against his protégés, and just how tricky he is. Most importantly Ed writes with a trembling hand the answer to getting rid of him. If you know someone who struggles with anorexia, bulimia, or binge eating or want to learn how to protect your children then Eating Disorder Brooding: Understand What She's Going Through explains this beast. It’s eating disorders meets Psychology 101 meets C.S. Lewis’ Screwtape Letters.
There is so much self-hatred in people who suffer from eating disorders and this book is evidence of that. After writing this book the author felt extreme disgust towards Ed. She believes it will do the same for you and give you the tools to fight him.
