In this deeply personal episode of Unmasked, Mis-labelled. Stacey shares her story of growing up as an undiagnosed autistic girl who developed bulimia as a way to cope with a world that never seemed to make sense. She explores the overlooked signs of autism in girls, the connection between neurodivergence and eating disorders, and the impact of misdiagnosis and masking. With honesty and vulnerability, she unpacks how bulimia became both a coping mechanism and a cry for help and how receiving an autism diagnosis in adulthood helped her finally begin to heal.
