Julia’s story
Julia’s life has been hijacked. And she never saw it coming.
Everything seemed to be going fine. Sure, her marriage has been a little rocky lately, and her youngest son could get a little wild. But overall, Julia was pretty satisfied. Her older daughter Molly had good grades, was in the orchestra, and played softball.
Everything seemed fine until …
But then Molly’s best friend said that Julia wasn’t eating and was “acting weird.” Her coach called to complain that she wasn’t working as hard at practice and seemed uninterested. Things quickly came to a head one day at the supermarket. While Julia was busy wrangling Molly’s little brother away from the cupcakes, Molly passed out.
She just dropped to the floor. In the middle of the supermarket.
Julia didn’t know what to do. A crowd formed around them. Someone offered Julia a granola bar and a bottle of water to give Molly. Slowly, Molly’s eyes opened. She took a sip of water, but shut her mouth tight and turned away from the granola bar.
How can my child have an eating disorder?
Scared, Julia took off work the next day and drove Molly to the doctor to be evaluated. The doctor recommended they see an eating disorder specialist. An eating disorder? Molly? How was it possible?
The next few weeks were a blur. Julia had to miss tons of work, and Molly was missing school. Julia felt overwhelmed and scared, but her husband dismissed the problem, saying it was just a phase and would all work out.
Molly’s therapist seemed great, but she was working with Molly, not Julia. So Julia found herself feeling scared, isolated and depressed. She was slipping at work and was worried about being able to keep her job. Julia didn’t feel comfortable telling anyone what was going on. She was terrified and alone.
I feel like I’m doing everything wrong!
Worst of all, she felt like she kept saying the wrong thing and doing the wrong thing all the time. She was walking on eggshells because she didn’t know how to talk to Molly about the eating disorder. Desperately afraid of making mistakes and hurting Molly’s recovery, she was pretty sure that she was messing up.
The problem is that, like so many parents who have kids who have eating disorders, Julia wasn’t getting the education or the support she needed to make it through her daughter’s recovery.
She thought that focusing all her resources on Molly was what she should be doing, but as a result she was overwhelmed, struggling, and panicked.
I need help!
Parenting a child who has an eating disorder is labor-intensive and terrifying. Many people who have recovered from an eating disorder say that their families either made it easy or hard. Sadly, in most cases families were unhelpful when it came to creating an environment that supported eating disorder recovery.
But it’s no secret that parents can also smooth the path and make recovery easier for everyone in the family. It just takes knowledge and practice. Julia doesn’t have to keep suffering. She can make things better for her family … and for herself.
This changes everything.
