Teenagers talk about their battle with anorexia. With more under-16s being hospitalised from anorexia than ever before, three teenagers take time to explain their own struggle with this life-threatening eating disorder.
Anorexia is a complex mental illness which can affect young men as well as women. Lindsay, Rob and Constance reveal what led them to become anorexic and, along with testimonies from their families, health services and schools, they also describe the long-road to recovery.
Three teenagers, two girls and a boy, talk openly about their battle with anorexia, and staff at a school and a psychiatric unit talk about how sufferers can be supported.
