Who develops which eating disorder and why? When do eating disorders begin and what fuels them?
In her book "Hunger for Connection," psychoanalyst and eating-disorder specialist Alitta Kullman delves into the concept of the perseverant personality, which she describes as the body/mind organization. She illustrates how food and thought are interconnected from infancy, and for some individuals, can become the primary source of nurturance and thought processing for a lifetime, leading to the development of eating disorders.
Kullman writes in a highly accessible style, bringing humor and gentleness to her interactions with patients. This book offers valuable insights to health professionals and mainstream readers alike, providing a comprehensive guide to understanding and working with cyclical eating disorders of all types. The book is relevant to a wide range of professionals, including psychoanalysts, psychotherapists, counselors, eating disorder specialists, researchers, and students.
Hunger for Connection not only provides guidelines for therapists of varying theoretical orientations and levels of expertise but also offers hope and help to individuals suffering from eating disorders and those who care for and about them. By exploring the connections between food, thought, and the perseverant personality, Kullman sheds light on the underlying factors that contribute to these disorders and provides practical strategies for treatment and recovery.
