Presentation: What’s the Skinny? An Eating Disordered Q&A

Are you a parent, teacher, friend, or loved one who doesn’t know exactly what eating disorders are all about? Information is power. If you know the signs, then you may be able to help someone before they fall down the rabbit hole.

Right now 30 million Americans have eating disorders, but only 1 out of every 10 people get proper treatment. Eating disorders, which affect men and women, have the highest death rate of any mental illness.

This presentation is geared to assist anyone who is in the dark about eating disorders. It will give an overview of the main types of eating disorders, describe how to approach someone you think has an eating disorder, and give a brief overview of my personal experience with my eating disorders. You will be provided with a small, location-dependent list of reference books and available resources. An open Q&A will allow you to raise specific questions at the conclusion of the presentation.
