    Navigating Recovery & Mental Illness w/ Izee Blooms (@izeeblooms)

    Recently classed as RECOVERED from Anorexia, Izee shares her advice + lived experience with mental illness in our open & vulnerable chat. We covered these topics... What does 'fully recovered' mean? + Izee’s checklist for being recovered. Social media & receiving hate online. How to accept SH scars & deal with comments from other people. Advice for friends & family of those struggling. Can it be triggering/ invalidating to be classed as 'recovered'? Helpful treatment professionals vs traumatic experience with treatment. Meal plans- when do they become too restrictive? Navigating ED recovery with Depression & PTSD (&insomnia) Is recovery a privilege? Understanding different circumstances. About Izee: Izee shares her lived experience with mental illness on her Instagram platform to spread awareness, fight stigma, and provide a safe space for others online. She posts uplifting content about body acceptance and self care, while also being open about the realities of depression, complex PTSD, Self-Harm, and EDs. I invited Izee onto the podcast because I believe her content is a rare example of a positive (but realistic) influence in the recovery community online. Thank you again to Izee for joining me!

    Disgusted by Your Body After Weight Gain?

    Neuroscience explained + tips for coping with body changes... Today's episode is an interesting one! If you experience strong feelings of disgust (among other negative emotions) when weight-restoring in anorexia recovery, you are not alone! There is nothing wrong with your body- hopefully the episode can point that out by highlighting the biological mechanisms of how body-image & disgust can relate. Overview : Tip 1: Focus on self-care, hygiene, and other aspects of your appearance. Neuroscience: interoception, body mapping, fear response, & the power of time. Tip 2: Decrease disgust by changing the mental image of your body. Tip 3: Use thought- blocking to prevent negative spirals. Thank you for listening!
