I think so much of it is that you're not thinking and feeling.
Ever wondered how deeply food can impact one's life? Chelsea Frank, a writer and performer, opens up about her lifelong battle with food addiction on this episode of 'Mental Illness Happy Hour'. From being fat-shamed as a child by her mother and classmates to attending 'fat camps' and eating disorder rehab, Chelsea's story is both heartbreaking and inspiring. She shares the emotional rollercoaster of bingeing, restricting, and seeking validation through unhealthy means.
But it's not just about the food; it's about the underlying pain, trauma, and the complex relationship with self-worth. Through raw honesty, Chelsea discusses cutting ties with her abusive mother and the journey towards self-compassion and emotional well-being. If you're looking for a conversation that blends vulnerability with resilience, this episode is a must-listen.
