More than 1.5 million people in the UK are directly affected by eating disorders. It destroys lives. Sue, which is not her real name, is in her mid 40's and told reporter Mat Trewern she's lived with anorexia nervosa for 30 years. She's lost her job and career because of it and she believes the illness will eventually kill her. In a moving interview, Sue told BBC Radio Manchester that after three decades her appetite for food has simply disappeared.
