Eating Disorders, Body Image & ADHD: The Link Nobody Talks About

from Hold On, What Was I Saying? · host Emily Southwell and Megan Richards

trigger warning: this one's a bit heavier than usual. We're talking eating disorders, body image and how they show up differently when you've got ADHD.we get into binge eating (and why it's so under-diagnosed, especially in women), the shame spiral that follows it, growing up in the Tumblr pro-ana era, and why rejection sensitive dysphoria makes body comments stick for life. we also go there on the Ozempic conversation; the accessibility of it, the trend of it, and why beauty standards always seem to circle back to whatever's hardest for "normal" people to get.plus: masking as a hidden driver of disordered eating, ARFID and sensory sensitivity in neurodivergent people, why scales are lying to you, and the stories behind our own body image baggage (boat parties, boob jobs, and the bikini we avoided for years).we're not experts, just two adhd women talking honestly about something that doesn't get talked about enough. if you're struggling, please reach out to BEAT or your GP.follow for new episodes every week 🧠
