Hardback. Condition: Good. Hearing about the destructive compulsion of bulimia nervosa, outsiders may wonder, "How could you ever start?" Those suffering from the eating disorder ask themselves in despair, "How can I ever stop?" How do you break the cycle of bingeing, vomiting, laxative abuse, and shame? While many books describe the descent into eating disorders and the resulting emotional and physical damage, this book describes recovery. Psychologist Sheila M. Reindl has listened intently to women's accounts of recovering. Reindl argues compellingly that people with bulimia nervosa avoid turning their attention inward to consult their needs, desires, feelings, and aggressive strivings because to do so is to encounter an annihilating sense of shame. Disconnected from internal, sensed experience, bulimic women rely upon external gauges to guide their choices. To recover, bulimic women need to develop a sense of self - to attune to their physical, psychic, and social self-experience. They also need to learn that one's neediness, desire, pain, and aggression are not sources of shame to be kept hidden but essential aspects of humanity necessary for zestful life. The young women with whom Reindl speaks describe, with great feeling, their efforts to know and trust their own experience.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. I am truly extraordinarily impressed with the Bulimia Help Method. It is really impressive and very approachable- Susan Paxton, Past President of the Academy for Eating Disorders & Professor at La Trobe University About the book You are not broken, weak or faulty because you binge on food. You are normal and more importantly you can fully recover. Let me explain. powerful binge cravings are a natural and normal side effect of food restriction. If you have ever restricted your food intake in your past (e.g. a diet, a detox program, cutting out carbs, etc) then you may have triggered a primitive natural survival mechanism we call primal hunger. This leads to powerful binge urges, an insatiable appetite, food obsession, depression and anxiety. Your body thinks you are in the middle of a famine and it is doing everything it can to make you eat lots of food. By purging your food, you remain malnourished and your body is stuck in primal hunger mode. Keep in mind, this has nothing to do with your upbringing, personality or emotional state. This may come as a surprise but studies show us that many of the symptoms that might have been thought to be specific to bulimia nervosa are actually the results of starvation (Pirke & Ploog, 1987). Chances are, you are perfectly normal and are just experiencing the natural and very normal side effects of a restrictive diet. We don't ask you to analyze your painful past experiences or to examine any personality 'flaws' that may have lead to your bulimia as there is no scientific evidence supporting the idea that resolving underlying psychological problems leads to recovery (Walsh & Cameron, 2005). Instead we give you clear, practical steps to remove your primal hunger, stop bingeing and purging, relearn normal eating and overcome bulimia for life. You can recover. There is a way. This book will help you: Make sense of your bulimia, (because believe it or not, bulimia doesn't have to be confusing ) Recover at a pace that suits you by following our step by step guide to recovery. Eliminate binge urges and cravings for life by restoring your body's own natural food regulation system. Establish a pattern of regular meals and snacks while learning strategies to curb urges to overeat. Get back in touch with subtle feelings of hunger and satiety which guide you to relearn what, when and how much you should eat. Overcome the barriers that unhelpful negative thoughts and uncomfortable emotions often create. Boost your self-esteem and general well-being. Effectively deal with relapses and setbacks. Have a normal, peaceful and natural relationship with food even if you never remember a time when eating has been this way.
