Summary

This is no ordinary book on how to overcome an eating disorder. The authors bravely share their unique stories of suffering from and eventually overcoming their own severe eating disorders. Interweaving personal narrative with the perspective of their own therapist-client relationship, their insights bring an unparalleled depth of awareness into just what it takes to successfully beat this challenging and seemingly intractable clinical issue. For anyone who has suffered, their family and friends, and other helping professionals, this book should be by your side. With great compassion and clinical expertise, Carolyn Costin and Gwen Schubert Grabb walk listeners through the ins and outs of the recovery process, describing what therapy entails, clarifying the common associated emotions such as fear, guilt, and shame and, most of all, providing motivation to seek help if you have been discouraged, resistant, or afraid. The authors bring self-disclosure to a level not yet seen in an eating disorder book and offer hope that full recovery is possible.

Critic reviews

"Carolyn Costin was my eating disorder therapist, and I credit her with my recovery. 8 Keys gives the reader the same insight, inspiration, and tools that Carolyn gave to me. It's straightforward, well-written, and allows the reader to actively participate in her own recovery. I highly recommend it to anyone who is struggling with an eating disorder." (Portia de Rossi)

Potentially life changing

I initially bought this audiobook in order to learn more about eating disorders. You see, I do not have an eating disorder. Yes I did learn a about eating disorders through this book , but I also learned a LOT about myself. Many times in my life I've had to deal with symptoms(If I could call them that) that people with eating disorders have to deal with. Naming some would be : self image problems, body dismorphia , resisting food intake, feeling helpless, feeling fat, feeling extreme guilt, counting calories and compulsive exercise. This book has helped me redefine my relationship with food and with exercise. There are really helpful exercises that can help people with eating disorders and by minor adjustments helped me tremendously. It's also simplistically writtenand well narrated, I would recommend this audiobook to anyone.
