it's time to talk about it

I started reading Portia de Rossi's new memoir today. So far, my impression is that she is putting it all out there perhaps to further her own healing/recovery and to help others who are struggling with self-acceptance; whether it is their body image and relationship with food or their sexual identity. Or both.

Turns out it's also National Eating Disorders Awareness Week. This year's campaign asks us all to do one thing. Here's my one thing: reading this book and encouraging everyone who happens by to help get the word out about the importance of understanding eating disorders.

Will you join me by posting something about National Eating Disorders Awareness Week on your blog?

Unbearable - intriguing title.
Thanks for sharing the idea.
I might just read a book!

Anne, I'm happy to send this book to you when I'm finished (probably tomorrow). Let me know.
