Disobey Finding Freedom from Your Eating Disorder

Find freedom in your life again with this supportive workbook full of journal prompts, exercises, and inspiring stories.
 
When you’re struggling with an eating disorder, it can be hard to imagine that recovery is possible. Your eating disorder has probably disconnected you from your friends and family, given you so many rules you now have to follow, and it’s even taken over your thoughts and feelings. But it’s important to remember that your ED is not your best friend. It doesn’t want what’s best for you. How can you say goodbye to your eating disorder and take back your life?
     In DISOBEY Drs. Tortolani, Rienecke, and Freizinger support you on your recovery journey and show you step-by-step how to find your freedom. Using science-backed tools, you’ll learn how to push back against your eating disorder and reconnect with yourself again.
 
DISOBEY also includes:

• Journal and art prompts to help you reflect and learn from what you read,
• Inspiring stories from others who have struggled with similar challenges, and
• Engaging exercises so you can start practicing new behaviors and ways of thinking

Recovery is tough, but it is always worth it.
