Audience -- There is actually a rather broad audience for this paper on Eating Disorders, ADHD and Poor Self-Awareness. First, in the medical profession, the General Practitioner, RN and APN Nurse, Counselors, Eating Disorder Clinics, Educators specializing in Special Education, Public Health Officials, and any parent or caregiver with someone who may have some of the symptoms expressed.
