About this product
Product Information
Bloodletting is a frank, compelling, and darkly humorous memoir that boldly challenges the silence surrounding one of societies deeply guarded taboos. Phlebotomy is the act or process of letting blood or bleeding, as by opening a vein or artery. The 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 one per cent of the UK 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. Today Victoria is a happy, successful 30-something professional, who bravely tells her story of battling the need to hurt herself.
