If you worry that you are sick enough, you are sick enough, and I would let them know that recovery is the long journey.
Eating disorders are often shrouded in silence, but they are one of the deadliest mental illnesses, second only to opioid overdose. In this eye-opening episode of 'To Write Love on Her Arms', host Jamie Tworkowski and guests, including Johanna Kandel, founder of The Alliance for Eating Disorders Awareness, dive into the complexities of these disorders. With nearly 30 million people in the U.S. experiencing an eating disorder at some point in their lives, this conversation is both timely and crucial.
The episode sheds light on the various types of eating disorders, how they manifest, and the journey towards recovery. It emphasizes that these disorders can affect anyone, regardless of age, gender, race, or socioeconomic status. The discussion doesn't stop at just identifying the problem; it also explores the importance of seeking specialized care and the role of professional treatment in recovery.
Listeners will hear about the impact of social media, toxic masculinity, and body image issues, as well as practical advice on mindfulness and self-care. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand more about eating disorders and how to support those affected. It's not just about awareness; it's about taking actionable steps towards healing.
