Our way out

Norwegian title: Vår vei ut

Photography by Nikol Herec

Eating disorders affect both genders and all ages. It’s an increasing health and community issue, especially among young people. Doctor Kari Løvendahl Mogstad explores different eating disorders, which signs you should look out for, information about treatment, societal consequences, and new research. She also shares her personal story about when her daughter Selma became ill with anorexia, and Selma offers her own texts which give an insight into the young person’s day-to-day and shows how the disease feels from the inside. The combination of the mother and daughter experience makes this story especially strong and believable. They offer hope to others going through the same, whether as the one suffering the disorder or the relative.
