Includes: self-help programmes for the eating disorders and the inspirational diary of recovery written by an ex-sufferer of Anorexia Nervosa, now a Youth Ambassador for Beat, the Eating Disorders association.Overcoming AnorexiaOriginally developed as a manual for anorexia patients at his eating disorders clinic in the Royal Edinburgh hospital, Chris Freeman's book is the first self-help guide based on cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) to address this most notorious and widespread of eating disorders. It is based on the treatment the author has used successfully with hundreds of patients over a number of years. CBT is now an internationally established method of treating emotional disorders such as anorexia, depression and panic by changing negative patterns of thought.Overcoming Bulimia Nervosa & Binge-EatingNow in its second edition, Peter Cooper's sympathetic and highly acclaimed self-help guide gives a clear explanation of the disorder and the serious health issues that can result from it. He describes the treatments available today and, most importantly, sets out a step-by-step self-help programme for those who want to tackle their difficulties for themselves or with their therapist. This is a real chance for sufferers to take the road to recovery, and will give their friends and family a much clearer understanding of the illness and its remedy.Overcoming PerfectionismPerfectionism can be healthy but when it becomes unhealthy and turns into 'clinical perfectionism' (sometimes referred to as 'dysfunctional perfectionism') is can cause serious problems, including eating disorders.Those suffering from clinical perfectionism tend to judge themselves predominantly in terms of the pursuit and attainment of personally demanding standards and often feel unable to be flexible and change their goals, despite the significant negative impact that the pursuit of perfectionism may have on their quality of life.This practical self-help manual offers a step-by-step programme to recovery based on CBT.Overcoming Low Self-EsteemA self-help classic, winning acclaim for its practical and user-friendly approach and now recommended on the NHS's self-help scheme known as Books on Prescription.
