Being able to do the opposite, which would be coming into treatment, even if they don't feel like they're sick enough, could be a life-saving decision, because if they continue to hide and live in that shame, the consequences are just going to continue to add up.
Ever wondered how eating disorders affect a wide range of people, not just a specific group? Erica Trocino, Clinical Director of The Meadows Ranch, breaks down these misconceptions in this episode of 'Beyond Theory'. With years of experience in the field, Erica dives into the real impact of diet culture and mainstream media on our body image.
She doesn't just stop there; she explores how the body positivity movement can be a powerful tool for embracing our bodies, no matter the shape or size. But it's not all rosy—Erica also addresses the shame that often accompanies eating disorders and how it can become a significant barrier to seeking treatment. She emphasizes the importance of reaching out for help, even if you don't think you're 'sick enough'.
This episode also sheds light on various paths to recovery, including the unique benefits of animal-assisted therapy. Whether you're struggling yourself or supporting someone who is, Erica's insights offer valuable guidance on navigating these complex issues and achieving lasting recovery.
