⚠️⚠️ Trigger warning: I'm going to be discussing disordered eating patterns such as binge eating in this episode, please feel free to skip if this is a triggering subject for you! ⚠️⚠️ Hey everyone, welcome back to Rant Room! Last week was Eating Disorder Awareness Week and it got me thinking about my own experiences with disordered eating patterns and body dysmorphia. I wanted to discuss what it can be like to live with hidden eating disorders in particular and how this can impact people, especially in the age of social media and how who we follow can play into our emotions without us even noticing it. Hence why I unfollowed a lot of people not too long ago and replaced them with a lot of accounts that spread more positivity and body neutrality across my Instagram feed, rather than every filter under the sun that makes me feel even worse about myself. Here are a few of my favourite accounts if you are looking for inspiration (especially with regards to ED recovery and body neutrality/body positivity.) @thewellful @bodyposipanda @bulimiacoach @i_weigh @antidietriotclub ...all amazing accounts that have helped me endlessly ❤ Hope you enjoy the episode!
Hey everyone! Welcome back to Rant Room. I wanted to talk about what it actually means to back off and calm down. Why is it so hard to do? How do you do it? The trick is sometimes as simple as this: knowing when you need to calm down. Like me, today. Have a good day and happy listening
