The Asymmetry Of Eating Disorders

EP: 292

Eating disorders seemingly use logic to convince you of why you should or shouldn't do certain behaviours or why something is or isn't important. But in reality, eating disorder are actually illogical and this becomes obvious when we look at them more closely.

"I began working with Chris over a year ago, and I could never imagine feeling the way I do, or being the person I am today without his help. My world has got so much bigger, and so much better, despite letting go of so many things that I thought I valued, that told me they kept me safe, and that I thought gave me community.

"I reached out to Chris, two months after I had sworn to myself that I’d never again enrol in any sort of counselling. Almost ten years of struggling with a restrictive eating disorder, four attempts of seeking professional help, and countless times of trying to recover on my own, had left me feeling hopeless. Moreover, the last shot I took at recovery resulted in an intense period of binge eating.

I came across his work at some point in 2019 after entering treatment in March of the previous year for a very long history of anorexia nervosa that had begun almost four decades before. Despite working with a nutritionist and a therapist for more than a year, I was still firmly entrenched in the hellish prison of “quasi” recovery, unable to comprehend how I could completely walk away from what I believed to have been my identity for as long as I could remember...."

How To Make Recovery Simple One of the things I hear most from potential clients is how overwhelming recovery can feel. “There are just so many things I feel like I have to be doing”  “It’s like recovery’s a full-time job. Is this how it should be?” “I’m so confused....

Every aspect of recovery is connected to three pillars. We can think of these as the three pillars of recovery. These pillars are interconnected and have a knock-on effect on each other. Let me go through each of them.

State The first pillar is called State. There are several aspects to state but collectively it’s about the physiological state that the body is in at this specific moment.  And while it is about this moment, it’s largely connected to what has happened before this moment.

Positive and Committed Action What determines whether recovery is happening is if you are taking positive or committed action.
