Stuck on Empty: Autistic Inertia, ARFID & the Struggle to Eat

Ever find yourself knowing you need to eat but just... not doing it?

In this episode, we’re talking Autistic Inertia, ARFID, and why finding the motivation to eat can feel impossible. If meals feel like a full-time job you never applied for, this one’s for you. Let’s break it down with humor, insight, and strategies that actually help!
