I started doing intermittent fasting, and that's really when this whole thing kind of set off and I didn't realize, you know it was such an innocent decision at the time...
Jack and Meredith are back with another episode of 'Sobriety Sucks', and this time, they’re diving deep into the complex world of eating disorders during sobriety. Meredith bravely shares her personal battle with anorexia and binge eating, starting from her college days and intensifying during the pandemic. What began as a seemingly harmless attempt at intermittent fasting spiraled into an unhealthy obsession with exercise and food restriction.
Meredith’s raw honesty about her body image struggles is both eye-opening and relatable for anyone facing similar issues. Jack and Meredith also discuss how early recovery can be a particularly vulnerable time for those with eating disorders, emphasizing the importance of therapy and step work in the healing process. They don’t shy away from pointing out how media representations of body image can exacerbate these issues, making this conversation incredibly relevant for today’s listeners.
This episode offers a compassionate look at the intersection of eating disorders and addiction recovery, providing valuable insights and support for anyone on a similar journey.
