Stuffed Teddy Mode

A raw and honest account of life with an eating disorder, told from the inside out.

In this honest, deeply personal, and refreshingly open book, Stacey invites readers into her lived experience with over 18 years battling (and slowly healing) from an eating disorder.  Guided by the steady presence of her dear friend Jon, whose presence serves as both an anchor and a guide and enriched by scientific research and literary insights into the complex emotional and psychological terrain of recovery, this book offers far more than just a clinical perspective.  It is grounded in real emotion. 

This is not a clinical textbook but a human story.  A story of quiet endurance and painful relapses, of deep inner work and hard-earned clarity.  It is about learning to listen to yourself, to trust again, and to reclaim your sense of worth.  

With brutal honesty, occasional humour, and genuine vulnerability, Stacey lays it all bare. Whether you are someone who has struggled personally, love someone who has, or are simply seeking a deeper understanding of eating disorders and recovery, this book offers an authentic perspective on what helped, what hurt, and what might benefit someone else.

If you're looking for empathy, understanding, and truth - this book is for you.
