Just a few years ago, Elspeth was in the grips of a severe eating disorder and at the worst point, was very realistically, not far off from death.
Elspeth looks back on some key periods in her life, situations and events that compounded and led to a detrimental relationship with food, and how she was initially blind to the reality of it.
You’ll hear about the layers of denial and deception to make sure she could carry on interrupted...
And Elspeth corrects some common misconceptions around eating disorders, details her road to recovery and describes what her mindset is like now.
And on top of that, there’s a lot more.
I’ve gone to every genuine effort to ensure that this topic was handled with the respect and care that it deserves, with the usual humour throughout. With this being such a sensitive subject, if you feel that the discussion of eating disorders and their consequences will be particularly upsetting, I’d recommend giving this episode a miss, for now. It’ll be here for you when you feel more ready for it.
