Entry 12: Let's talk about anorexia.

08/01/23 • 24 min

Sit down with Amy for a solo episode in Entry 12, where she talks about what she's learned after researching more about anorexia. While her specific struggles in the past have revolved around bulimia, the eating disorders share a lot of commonalities. She talks about different types of eating disorders (from AFRID to OSFED to UFED), anorexia and binge eating disorder statistics and ways that she's helped strengthen her mind in recovery from bulimia that she feels can also be applied to those suffering from anorexia and binge eating disorder.
