Enveloped: Desire... disordered

0/5 ( ratings)

Amy Phillips kept a diary throughout her illness that lasted for five years. Her entries are frank, and due to the nature of her illness confused and often contradictory. She believed that she was anorexic, and suffered frightening weight loss and unbearable depression, lightened occasionally by moments of relief and distraction. At times her diary entries are dark and desperate, but she always hoped that there would be an end to her pain and fear. After hospitalisation and much treatment, it was eventually discovered that Amy's illness was a result of food allergies and intolerances, and her recovery is also recorded in these diaries. Amy started her diaries in 1993, never meaning them to be read by anyone else. They continued through her illness, eventual diagnosis and recovery. She decided to share her diaries and have them published in order to try and help others who are or who have been in similar situations. She is open and honest about her feelings, her depression and her anorexia.

These diaries provide an insightful and honest record of illness and recovery.
