Description
Too often the cultural representations of the stories of those who experience a Nutrition and Eating Disorder (DNA), place the understanding of the disorder and the actions aimed at containing it exclusively within the individual and medical sphere. The diagnosis, while helping to describe the origin of the disease in order to localise and objectivise its cause, delivers a label around which narratives take shape. The words chosen to narrate an experience of distress are a powerful epistemic tool. When a person is 'taken into care' by the services, he or she becomes a 'patient' and the object of planning and evaluations that risk reducing the discursive universe that gives voice to the person's experience. Starting from the individual stories of those who have experienced a DNA, investigated using the methods of autoethnography and duoethnography, the cooperative and performative research that is the subject of this article has been proposed as a pathway for the emergence of stories and bodies that has also taken on a political value. The sharing of individual stories within relational, and collective learning devices, and the use of performance art as a political act to express dissent, made it possible to give citizenship to the grief of those who had experienced a DNA and to keep alive a transformative tension in the stories.
