![]() ![]() ![]() Oh god, she MUST have known someone to have gotten this pushed through. ![]() If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Kid Rex? The narrator had a young whiny voice that made the litany of complaints the author was spewing all the more irritating. Maybe the book would have been better if read. How could the performance have been better? No, I have read many books relating to eating disorders. Has Kid Rex turned you off from other books in this genre? Would you try another book from Laura Moisin and/or Arielle DeLisle? Without preaching, this memoir offers a reassuring first-hand voice for the many who suffer silently, and provides strength for family and friends to help heal destructive behaviors. Her therapist looks at her doubtfully and says, shockingly, "No, I don’t think you’re an anorexic.”Īlready swirling in a state of confusion, the attacks on New York’s World Trade Center - an event the author witnessed first-hand from her apartment - only accelerate her path to further self-destruction. Recognizing that she has a serious disorder, she quickly finds a therapist working at her university and openly confesses that she’s an anorexic seeking treatment. Deceiving therapists by misleading them with symptoms of depression, her anorexia is prolonged, and her health deteriorates rapidly. After knowing friends with anorexia and being baffled by their behavior, Laura Moisin suddenly found herself prone to the same disease - not eating at all and going weeks at a time consuming nothing but water and the occasional black coffee. ![]()
