- Title: "The Golden Cage"-Please Read

Description:
Inspired by 'The Golden Cage: The Enigma of Anorexia Nervosa':
"An image came to her, that she was like a sparrow in a golden cage. She enlarged on the image, that cages are made for big colorful birds who show off their plumage [...] She felt she was quite different, like a sparrow, inconspicuous and energetic, who wants to fly around and take off on its own, who is not made for a cage."
Keep comments civil-this is a political topic. Judge on the execution of a concept, not worth in gold. - Date: 11/08/2009

Thank you three!
I would advise reading it only because it was so important in shining a new light on this disease. It changed it from being a 'vain pursuit of thinness' into a real psychological disorder. However, it is rather dated. (It submits Anorexia primarily affects the 'rich, white young girls', for example.) Still good, though. "Hunger Strike" by Suzan Orr is a must read, though. - Report As Spam

- That's nice, I may have to pick up that book. I know that feeling, and it's frightening.
