| Publisher Description: Millions of people around the world struggle with eating disorders. Too many believe that partial recovery is the best possible outcome for people suffering from eating disorders. Struck Down but not Destroyed is a gripping account of a teen's battle with Anorexia and her Maudsley based-treatment and recovery. Annie Orth details her winding journey that led to hospitalization in the cardiac unit and finished with full recovery and victory over Anorexia a few years later. Orth outlines the lessons she and her family learned from renowned ED health professionals that were key to helping her achieve successful, complete recovery. Orth, who also battled a severe anxiety disorder, also contests the misconceptions and stigma associated with mental illnesses as she describes her transition into college while defeating the anxiety- and Anorexia-driven thoughts that once consumed her brain. Orth's positive yet honest story offers hope that people struggling with eating disorders, anxiety disorders, depression, or other mental illnesses can ultimately lead healthy and fulfilling lives by seeking proper treatment and support. |
