130. But What If Recovery Isn't Worth It?
Manage episode 399674668 series 2969132
What if you're recovering from an eating disorder and it's not all it's cracked up to be? What if the "better life" everyone talks about doesn't feel true for you, and you wonder if it was actually better before? In this episode, we look at this very nuanced, delicate, and lesser-talked-about aspect of some people's experience.
- Does it matter if you have other "things" in your life to fall back on?
- Needing something else to fill the gap of a sense of "purpose"
- What does it mean to "create" a relationship with yourself
- Book recommendations for cultivating a relationship with the self: Martha Beck's Following Your Own North Star and the Bewildered Podcast; Untamed book by Glennon Doyle
- The caveat of safety
- What if trauma comes up in the recovery process?
- Hope
- The irony of needing to escape recovery
- Sarah's dating comparison
- Tweaking the recovery approach and getting another set of eyes on it
- The case of the messy middle
- Weight loss surgery -- is it a part of recovery or a departure from recovery?
- TICKETS TO AN EVENING IN BRIGHTON with Stef, Sarah, and Marcus Kain
- TICKETS TO NERVOUS SYSTEM RESET DAY RETREAT IN BOURNEMOUTH
