I know that talking about it heals me and I know that it paves the way for others to do the same.
Ever felt trapped in a body that doesn't feel like your own? Kate Geller has been there. In this candid episode of 'Shame On Shame', Kate pulls back the curtain on her personal journey with body dysmorphic disorder. Standing at five feet tall, she saw her weight jump from 115 lbs. to 180 lbs., but the story behind those numbers is anything but simple. From early childhood struggles to Adderall abuse that ravaged her skin, Kate shares it all.
A horrific accident left her nearly unrecognizable, adding another layer to her already complex relationship with her body. This episode is the first in a two-part series, where Kate doesn't just talk about the weight gain but dives into the years of shame and trauma that led up to it. She also touches on how bullying and substance abuse played their roles.
Kate's openness about using her late boyfriend's death as a crutch for her drinking is both heart-wrenching and eye-opening. If you've ever felt isolated by your own struggles with body image or shame, Kate's story offers a sense of solidarity and hope. Her message is clear: talking about shame is the first step towards healing. So, tune in for an unfiltered look at the complexities of mental health, substance abuse, and the heavy burden of shame.
