In this week's episode, we discuss how we came to acknowledge an eating disorder as 'an abusive partner' that convinces the sufferer, and their loved ones, that they are useless, contemptible and unworthy of respect or compassion.  Insight into how an ED manifests in this way brought huge succor in how to change our approach, and help Harry to challenge the self-doubt generated by the internal voice of an eating disorder.

Episode 8: The abusive partner

Welcome to ‘Don’t Weight to Change!’  

Our original ‘Why Weight to Change?’ podcast, began as an advocacy for mental health issues following my personal 10+ year battle with anorexia.  By sharing my story, we aimed to help others struggling with mental health issues, especially young boys and men, creating a safe space for candid discussion and support.  

Following the phenomenal feedback from our listeners, our podcast has organically expanded into issues that affect mental health such as ‘what it means to be human’.   Questions such as ‘what compels us to make the life choices we make?  Who determines and influences that?  How do we alight upon the opinions and beliefs that we live by that form our sense of identity, and how do we identify, and deselect, certain opinions or beliefs when they no longer prove to serve us and who we want to be?

Our podcast now seeks to encourage conversations around how to relinquish the weight of self-doubt, expectation, fear and uncertainty which holds us back and prevents us from changing into who we want to be.  

We aim to encourage discussion around how to stop seeking external validation and permission to change, what change might look like, and how change benefits our mental wellbeing so that we live out the most beneficial version of ourselves in whatever way we choose!

Thank you for joining in our discussion!
