What Are We Starving For?

Starving for love. Starving for control. Starving for acceptance. What if we asked ourselves - what are we starving for?Eating disorders are a prevalent issue amongst queer men but are historically underrepresented. Sunni Patel knows this all too well, navigating life as a gay Indian man recovering from bulimia, who never saw a story like his being told. This book dives into key issues and unique challenges faced by queer men with eating disorders, from shame and stigma to pressure for perfection and the impact of gendered body image ideals. It also provides strategies for recovery and healing and guidance for families, friends and healthcare professionals to support you in your journey.
