Book
Food school [graphic novel] / Jade Armstrong.
Olive, a twenty-something college dropout, enrols in a full-time outpatient program for eating disorder recovery where they learn, talk, and cry about eating disorders as part of a survivor support group. Intensely committed to recovery, Olive confronts the secretive, self-destructive, and sometimes tragically comedic nature of their illness, while struggling with the complexities of modern mental health care. With support and perspective from their roommate, a fellow patient, and their partner, Olive learns to open up about their abusive relationship with food and exercise and finds ways to cope with the reality of living in a society that actively encourages disordered eating.
