The book's amazing.

I don't recall anything directly referencing eating disorders (apart from the one sentence about anorexia in the passages I quoted), but there is a section where he describes having to deal with his digestive system malfunctioning after the accident and being on an IV drip for a long period, with a page or so about memories and fantasies of eating.

And obviously, it's all about body experience, embodiment, physical trauma, medical trauma, and so forth.

I don't know if that gives you the information you need; let me know if there's anything in particular it would help you to be warned about. I skim-read very fast, so it's not a hassle for me to check for stuff.
