Triggers are unique to each individual according to their lived experience. Please use self-care and stop reading  or watching anything that may be triggering to you. I encourage you to speak with your therapist if any uncomfortable feelings arise as a result of any information contained in the books listed below.

STRAIGHT/CURVE: Redefining Body Image

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.
