Favorite Quote

When an anorexic says, 'I don't want to be fat, I want to be thin', they are saying, 'I want to be other than what I am, and what I am is unhappy. I want to be someone else'.

Introduction

Eating disorders like anorexia and bulimia regularly come up in the media as mental health issues that affect young women and girls.

While news reports, films, and books often feature stories of 'Ana and Mia,' they are usually portrayed as symptoms of diet culture rather than deeper emotional and psychological issues.

Hadley Freeman is an American-British journalist who spent many of her adolescent years in inpatient treatment for eating disorders.

In Good Girls, Freeman combines her personal experiences of anorexia nervosa with expert insights to help people understand what living with the disorder feels like.
