I had been in therapy for many years prior to the diagnosis of my eating disorder. This list is a compilation of books that have helped me before, during, and after the treatment of my eating disorder diagnosis.
While I have made an effort not to post anything that could be triggering, I realize triggers are unique to each individual. Please practice good self-care and stop reading if you experience anything that is triggering.
