Medical Issues & Gender Transitions- Gray: "ED is only a shadow lagging behind me, but not part of me."

In this episode, my guest is Gray. Gray is only 22 but has a long & remarkable recovery path. He brings us a multi layered view of mental health, medical complications and eating disorder recovery and what happens when they intersect. He informs on the blurred lines between physiological and disordered eating origins and how mental health and navigating stages of gender transition can muddy the waters of recovery. Not willing to be deterred by these hurdles, he stopped resisting change and started to hear and share his voice while leaning into coping skills to unravel all these entangled obstacles to land in the now, where he is willing to share and inspire with openness. Gray is a true champion of perseverance and patience.Thanks for exploring Hope with me!  Caise "RECOVERY STARTS WITH ONE BOLD NEW CHOICE." #therapist #stressrelief #anxiety #eatingdisordersupport #skills #ED #mentalhealth #recoveryFor more Podcasts & Support: https://caiserodemchale.comEmail: [email protected] me on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn & Youtube - Search 'caiserodemchale' or follow links on website. ----------------------------------------------------------------------For Mental Health emergencies please go to your nearest Emergency Room or dial 911 or 988 on your phone.
