Not Sick Enough for Eating Disorder Recovery: Overcoming the Comparison Trap

In this episode of Recover to Flourish, I dive into a topic that many individuals with eating disorders struggle with: feeling like they are not "sick enough" for recovery. As someone who has experienced this feeling myself, I know how challenging it can be to seek help and support when you feel like your symptoms aren't "bad enough."Through my own experience and research, I explore the reasons why individuals with eating disorders may feel this way, including the glamorisation and trivialisation of eating disorders in the media, distorted body image and behaviours, and feelings of shame or stigma. I also offer practical tips and strategies for overcoming the comparison trap and seeking the help and support you need to recover.If you're struggling with feeling like you're not "sick enough" for eating disorder recovery, this episode is for you. Join me as we explore this common experience and work towards a more compassionate and supportive approach to recovery.//Follow me below:Instagram: @flourishwithciandra @recovertoflourish_podTikTok: @flourishwithciandraContact: [email protected] me know your thoughts!
