| Description | Bloodletting/ -, letting /n. 1.Phlebotomy, the act or process of letting blood or bleeding, as by opening a vein or artery 2.Outmoded medical practise used as a cure for illnesses ranging from fevers to hysteria Bloodletting is a close relative of bulimia and anorexia; it is estimated that up to 1 per cent of the population has intentionally harmed itself - yet for the most part it is a behaviour that goes unspoken, dismissed as the attention-seeking actions of prison inmates or delinquent teenagers. If you ran into Victoria on the street during her darkest days you would never have known the torment she endured. Confident, polite and articulate, she could have been your sister, your friend or your lover. Yet from her late teens and throughout her twenties Victoria Leatham struggled with the overwhelming desire to hurt herself, a desire that was all consuming and shaped every aspect of her life. And while not everyone who feels stressed, insecure or depressed will physically turn upon themselves, anyone who has ever felt out of control will recognise the logic that drove her. occasionally glances sideways at the bathroom cabinet. | | Release Date | 2005 | | Author | Victoria Leatham | | Format | Dimensions 12.9x23.0 cm
