Eating disorders present unique challenges for people with sensory sensitivities, which is why traditional treatment can do more harm than good. In this episode, Livia and Jess share their lived experience of neurodivergence and eating disorders, delving into the importance of trauma-informed care for neurodiversity-affirming eating disorder recovery.

Key Topics Discussed:

  • Managing environmental overwhelm
  • Speech challenges and developmental processing delays
  • The link between sensory sensitivity and eating disorder development
  • Iatrogenic harm in eating disorder treatment
  • The need for trauma-informed care in eating disorder treatment
  • Polyvagal Theory and our nervous system's response to stress and trauma
  • Neurodivergent perspectives on control and safety
  • How treatment environments often fail to accommodate sensory needs
  • Misdiagnosis faced by individuals with both eating disorders and neurodivergent conditions
