Eating Disorders in Discussion, Wednesday's Child

A Levels, Academia…& The Eating Disorder Desire for Achievement


Listen Later

Recorded within two hours of the news that the UK government had made a U-turn about the allocation of A Level grades, the latest Wednesday’s Child podcast sees Sarah and Debbie chatting about the desire for validation, attainment, and achievement.

Anyone in the midst of an eating disorder battle will undoubtedly have found the A Level debacle hugely difficult to deal with, but has this period given a chance for those dealing with the illness to pause and consider whether their intended next steps for an academic career are the right ones….at least for now?

Sarah and Debbie recall their own experiences of trying to ‘function’ while still entrenched with their illness, and discuss what important steps they had to achieve to separate from their ‘poorly persona’ and achieve full recovery.
