Mom Please Help – Review Of The Anorexia and Bulimia Book by Karen Philips
Mom Please Help Review
Anorexia and Bulimia Nervosa are two eating disorders that may seem alike but are in fact, worlds apart. While the former is characterized by the powerful terror of putting on a single ounce, which leads to little to no consumption of food, the latter focuses on a cycle that compels the patient to binge on large quantities of food and then forcefully throw up. Both are equally difficult to overcome and the journey is harrowing, to say the least.
Like the rest of us, Karen Philips always knew these basic facts but didn’t know that she would one day have to watch her daughter, Amy, battle with the disorder for 10 years. ‘Mom Please Help’ is basically a self help book that details the signs and symptoms to look out for and the principles to keep in mind- she focuses on the fact that these principles are malleable in the sense that they can be molded to suit the patient’s needs and preferences as and when required.
The Mom Please Help Book – What´s Inside?
The book begins with the above-mentioned check-points which cover the 25 things that everyone should know about Anorexia-Bulimia, some of which are listed below-
- Most people are not aware of this fact but a sure-shot way of treating anorexia-bulimia is to carry out the program at home. This way, the patient is dependent on nobody but him/herself and consequently, is able to modify her way of thinking and behavioral pattern. When Karen realized this and implemented the principle, Amy started showing signs of improvement almost instantly.
- Group therapy is helpful in the sense that it allows patients to reach out to other people with the same problem and hence, realize that they are not alone. However, once they feel that they are getting better, it is imperative that they leave the group because otherwise, they may not get better.
- Group therapy can have a number of negative effects as well. For example- if a patient reveals that she drinks ipecac to make herself throw up, other patients may try this ‘method’ the first chance they get. This will make the professional-in-charge feel like she’s letting her patients down in the long-run.
- While doctors are excellent as far as support systems are concerned, parents needs to understand that their child needs them more than anybody else. As long as they’re there for them, everything else will fall into place.
The rest of the Mom Please Help book goes into the details of the program and highlights the fact that it doesn’t involve any kind of drugs, pills or concoctions of any sort. Karen also says that even though it doesn’t push anorexics or bulimics to take professional help, it does focus on a scientific formula that is fool-proof.
