Anorexia Recovery in Autism

0 replies

ANRecoverySU · 09/07/2023 16:48

Do you have a diagnosis of Autism?

Do you identify as recovered or in recovery from Anorexia?

Do you want to share your experiences of Anorexia recovery?

Then please join my study.

My name is Abigail McIntosh and I am a Clinical Psychology and Mental Health master's student at Swansea University, under the supervision of Dr Rachael Hunter ([email protected]).

The aim of this project is to understand how individuals on the Autism spectrum make sense of their recovery from Anorexia Nervosa, and what factors influences an individual’s eating disorder recovery.

I am looking for:

  • Anyone over the age of 18
  • Identify as in recovery or recovered from Anorexia Nervosa
  • Autism Spectrum Condition diagnosis
  • You DO NOT need a formal diagnosis of anorexia or any other eating disorder in order to take part.

What will this study involve?

  • Interview completed over Zoom. (This can be through Zoom chat with camera off, or I can send the questions via email to be completed)
  • This will be anonymous, and all information gathered will be confidential.
  • Interviews will take around 35-45 minutes.

Your participation is voluntary, and you can change your mind at any time.

This project has been approved by Swansea University School of Psychology Ethics Committee.

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN PARTICIPATING: Please feel free to contact me (Abigail McIntosh) at [email protected].
