Eating Disorder Mind Games

JOIN THE REWIRED IN ACTION COMMUNITY: www.rewiredinaction.com/

Eating disorders can be incredibly convincing; it’s why so many of us stay unwell for so long. In this episode, we look at some of the common “mind games” that can keep you stuck – everything from being told you “look well” or that your blood results are fine, to comparing yourself with someone who seems to be struggling more.

We talk about why these thoughts can be so difficult to challenge, and come back to a bigger question: what kind of life are you able to live when the eating disorder is making the decisions?

Topics covered:

Common ED “mind games”
Questioning whether you’re struggling “enough”
Medical reassurance and recovery
Comparing yourself with others
Appearance and eating disorder recovery
Hunger cues and recovery
Looking beyond being “well enough” to function
