The why
WHY did I write the first book for you … for you to connect the dots between your pain and your story …
‘A gripping, revealing first-hand account of resilience and utter struggle, including debilitating suicidal depression, JLKEEZ identifies the significant connection between illness and one’s life story. Her eye-opening informative narration, acknowledges that answers sought can be multi-layered; recovery relies upon input drawn from a range of modalities. Candidly honest, the inclusion of wit and humour alongside this serious subject is enlightening. This memoir highlights a refreshingly new approach. Solutions offered result from her nine-year lived experience of Anorexia Nervosa followed by many more enduring associated illnesses. Her detailed insights demonstrate extensive knowledge regarding eating disorders. The role, and contribution, of relationship – with self and others – is strongly referenced.’
The how
Healing can be a daunting road – confusing, frustrating, tearful
HOW we each end up in an eating disorder and HOW we each see ourselves within the eating disorder can vary enormously. But one HOW I have come to truly acknowledge, as a powerful support toward our healing, is the contribution provided by those who have journeyed the road before us. HOW I arrived at Anorexia Nervosa at 15, HOW I lived through those years, and HOW I survived to finally heal – is what you will take from my words, shared so you can heal.
Use my HOW to understand yours…
Captivating and visionary, the views shared reinvigorates this field of enquiry regarding an illness still bathed in mystery for far too many. Relating to all, this ‘breath of fresh air’ provides insightful alternate understanding for readers suffering eating disorders and associated illnesses. Her words shared will leave the reader inspired, knowing full recovery is absolutely possible.

What will you learn regarding your ‘out’
Where we suffer, reading about how another found their healing, their OUT, is most comforting. As I share my OUT, your OUT may become so very clear.
What did I wish to achieve, for you, the reader?
To provide an account of a deeply sad existence which found its way to Anorexia Nervosa in the hope of finding peace and acceptance. Instead, the existence spiralled into a tremendously difficult endurance – lined with illness so immense, leaving seemed the only way out.
To then provide an account of strength, sheer determination and triumph in the face of impossibility – so you, the reader, will draw your strength from my story, to learn, to grow, to fully recover and live a most wonderful authentic life!
