- 10 Things you need to know about eating disorders (Coming Soon!)

When our daughter developed anorexia, [Carolyn Costin's] book "Your Dieting Daughter...is she dying for attention?" helped tremendously. The book gave us great insight and helped us find our path.
Thank you,
L.S.
Even through therapy and counseling, the fight to end something that has been my "safe haven" for such a length of time is very difficult. I wanted more hope so I turned to books and stories from people with eating disorders. Going through Barnes and Nobles one day I came across your book, "8 Keys to Recovery From an Eating Disorder." I flipped through the first few pages and took comfort in your words. I found a piece of myself on every page. Your book has become my safe place. I read it when I feel hopeless and a failure. I have recommended your book to my nutritionist and counselor, who only naturally already owned the book! You are such an inspiration to me. Thank you for all your wisdom and hope, you are truly an angel of change.
With Love,
