Вечно худеющие. 9 историй о том, как живут и что чувствуют те, кто недоволен...

A book by psychotherapist Vitalina Malygina about how to get rid of self-hatred, which corrodes the soul, deprives us of strength and moves us away from people who are ready to love us. From his own experience, the author knows that for those who have suffered or continue to suffer from their reflection in the mirror, from the ridicule of the inner critic and the jokes of others, it is difficult to be grateful to their body. But it is it that takes upon itself all the blows to which the psyche is exposed. When no one undertook to protect us, our body did it. Recognizing this is the first step towards reconciliation. The book contains nine stories. Each of them is just one of the scenarios according to which the life of a girl, girl, woman who considers herself fat and unattractive can develop. And in everyone there is a way to a new life. From the author. My body is my enemy. And the best of defenders For many years I lived at war with my body. Now I’m wondering if I could have gotten help a little sooner, if my family, instead of endlessly blaming me for trying to diet, had known a little more about what happens to girls when they stop eating, would my path to a little shorter? There is no answer to this question. As there was not even a hypothetical possibility for me to avoid my path: 35 years ago, when I was a teenager, in our country it would never have occurred to anyone to think what was wrong with girls who “sit down” on kefir or apples. We did not have psychotherapy, and psychology had only a pedagogical or engineering status. So there was no help for me. And I really want one of those girls, girls and women who are right now fighting self-hatred because of the imperfection of their body, along with this book, to receive a little support, love and hope. And he came back to me faster than I did.
