ARFID treatment manual for MH clinicians

With few, if any, RCT studies on the treatment of ARFID to date, this is a helpful empirically-based step-by-step treatment manual for mental health providers targeting weight gain/restoration and increasing variety in the food the individual eats. It uses a variety of exposure techniques (systematic desensitization, interoceptive exposure, graded exposure), psychoeducation, and parent-/self-monitoring. A previous clinician complained that it is written for dietitians and MDs while not addressing psychological problems. Coming from an FBT background, I disagree. The treatment addresses underlying mechanism from a CBT perspective and I love that it includes a therapeutic meal and in-session exposures to feared/disliked foods. It is far different from the days past when therapists treated eating disorders as a symptom of an underlying control issue or hidden psychological injury/need/drive and relied on the MD/dietitian to discuss what they should be eating. Of course, eating disorder treatment should be a team effort. If you are a an adult or parent of a child with ARFID considering this book, I strongly suggest that you find a therapist trained in CBT-AR (adults and youth) or FBT-ARFID (youth treatment) There are too many scary medical complications that can come with eating disorders and it’s very difficult to treat on your own. This book might give adults/parents some insight into their or their child’s ARFID, but it’s NOT written for parents and especially not written for teens/kids to read. Best wishes to all who struggle with ARFID and the providers trying to help them!

Finally an answer!

For years I have wondered what is wrong with me!! Ever since my childhood I have had bouts of very low appetite, afraid to eat cause every time I would eat I would feel nauseous, eating at odd times compared to everyone else and only wanting to eat “safe” foods. I have lost so much, but I would read up on Anorexia, bulimia, generalized anxiety disorder and depression but none of them fit me completely until I learned about ARFID!!! Now I do have anxiety and depression but that has formed after years of counseling and never knowing what is truly wrong with me. I have just been labeled as MDD with GAD but I would tell them over and over how I felt about food and how I missed eating and enjoying food like a normal person but they would just blow me off. I began to actually feel crazy! Until now, now that I know it is a real disorder and there is hope I feel like I have a voice.

My nephew has this.

For years he would only eat Honey Nut Cheerios or Chicken McNuggests. Then when he was a teen a family friend gave him a bottle of Tabasco sauce and asked him to try it. Now he'll eat anything as long as it has Tabasco on it.
