Eating disorders are responsible for more loss of life than any other mental health condition.

•Between 1.25 and 3.4 million people in the UK are affected by an eating disorder.

With most eating disorders developing during adolescence, there are cases of eating disorders developing in children as young as 6.

My amazing guest @thinkingoutloudwithshan knows the affects of eating disorders first hand.

Despite this happening in her early years, she has gone on to turn her life around. She is part of our amazing NHS service and is a YouTube vlogger and mental health campaigner.

This amazing bundle of energy has a heart of gold 💛
This is a brilliant episode in which we talk all things from;

• Identifying when an eating disorder starts.
• Telling your family about the disorder. 
• The pressures of social media on our youth.
• Tactics to help overcome the disorder 
• Working in the NHS during the COVID 19 pandemic
• How to stay positive and calm during the struggles of the pandemic.

**Please be aware that some of the topics can be triggering for some people - Be Kind to yourself **
