Ep: 24 Shopping, Different Sizes, Same Friendship 🩶

What happens when you want to go shopping with a friend, but your eating disorder starts telling you that you don’t belong because your bodies are different sizes? In this episode of Dear Recovery, we’re talking about body comparison, shame, friendship, and the fear that other people are judging our bodies—even when they may not be judging us at all. Because your body size doesn’t determine who you get to spend time with, where you get to shop, or whether you deserve to be included. We’ll talk about choosing safe people, setting boundaries, separating past experiences from present relationships, and—most importantly—not letting your eating disorder make your world smaller. You don’t have to be the same size as your friend to belong beside them. 🩷 "If something has been weighing on your heart, I'd love to hear from you. Send me your questions, your thoughts, or even just say hello. You can email me at [email protected] or send me a DM on Instagram @dear_recovery1. No question is too messy, and you never have to figure it out alone."
