Not Hungry

When you hear “eating disorder,” I’m sure your first thought is Anorexia or Bulimia, but what you may not know is that there are many other kinds of eating disorders. This book is about an eating disorder called ARFID. Formally known as Selective Eating disorder, this illness makes for debilitating disordered eating patterns. I have had ARFID my entire life and only found out about it a year ago. Many children with ARFID transition into adulthood without even knowing about the disorder let alone getting a diagnosis or treatment. Adults with untreated ARFID often have many physical, mental, and psychological complications and hardships. However, there is still hope and relief ahead.
