In this non-fiction story of struggle and grief, 'My Secret Life: A Memoir of Bulimia' details one teenager’s battle with Bulimia Nervosa. After two years of misery and depravity, Leanne Waters explores the development of her illness and looks closely at the psychological bedrock of this ambiguous disease. It is a first-hand account of a secret world that lurks behind closed doors in daily life.

A penetrating insight into the mentality of a Bulimic, the story follows Waters through her transition from a high-achiever with tremendous potential to a shadowed breath of her former self.
