This episode comes with a trigger warning, but it's an important conversation for us to have. When I was first diagnosed with type one, I was lucky enough to be 19 when I already had a pre-established relationship with food (not to say that diabetes didn't distort that relationship). Unfortunately, that's not always the case. Diabulimia is a very real and dangerous eating disorder that is not fully recognized or discussed by our endocrinologists.

Inside this episode, we're talking with guest Natalie Swanson about her experience with diabulimia, the impact it's had on her life and how to get support if you relate to the signs.
