Bodies by Susie Orbach

4.0

this is a good, basic, brief overview about some of the reasons humans might feel uncomfortable in their bodies. orbach argues that body discomfort may not always originate in the mind- for example, people with anorexia are often told that they are struggling with mental control issues rather than actual body issues- but could be a direct result of body trauma.

i don't know if i would actually give this book to someone who is struggling with body issues themselves, but it's an interesting read for someone who wants to research them or learn how to help people who do struggle.
