Excerpt
"You saved my life," the man going down the escalator said, gesturing towards me and I moved past him on the escalator going up. "How?" I asked, amazed. "Bitter Ice," he replied, but then was gone. This book is for him and all the other men and women who are partners of men with eating disorders. May reading it help them as writing it has helped me.
Are you concerned that the man you live with has an eating disorder, or do you know that he does
Perhaps you knew this before you married or made a commitment to him, or you are just beginning to be concerned. Maybe you have a friend whose partner seems ill, but your friend doesn't want to talk about him, and always defends him if you questions his behavior or hers.
Whatever the reason, I believe that this workbook will give you useful information about eating disorders in men and ways to think about your own role and what you can't and can change. Eating disorders are powerful illnesses that can take over not only the life of the person with the illness, but his family as well, so it is important that you understand them as fully as possible. Doing this can help your partner, and you as well.
