Healing 42 Years of Trauma-Induced Bulimia in Two Sessions: Mimi's Story

In this episode of the Overcoming PTSD podcast, I interview a Mimi who overcame 42 years of trauma-induced bulimia in just two sessions of processing over six hours.

Mimi shares her journey, starting from her teenage years in 1979, how bulimia progressively took over her life, and the turning point that led to her healing.

She discusses the triggering events, her process of self-discovery, failed attempts to find help, and the eventual breakthrough through a combination of journaling, analyzing emotions, and processing trauma.

This episode sheds light on the connection between trauma and eating disorders, offering hope and actionable insights for those struggling with similar issues.
