Anorexia as a Control Issue

January 31, 2006
Host: Armand DiMele Guests: Christine Ulrich, Stephanie D'Ambra

Anorexia is not really about food but about control, perfectionism, and a refusal to grow up. Armand DiMele, joined by Stephanie D’Ambra, LCSW and Christine Ulrich, traces how starvation becomes a way to freeze development, reject femininity, and rebel against family pressure without openly defying it.
