Laurie’s Biggest Shame: Eating Disorders 1

Warning: This episode is hard as is very likely to be triggering
to people who have experiences with disordered eating. Please
listen with self love and take good care of yourself. 


We have debated not publishing this episode many times as it is
less about recovery and more about currently living with mental
illness and actively struggling. It was the hardest episode we
have ever recorded. That said, in some ways we hope that this
episode offers a glimpse into the reality of really tough
conversations, boundary setting, and the deep shame and struggles
that can come from mental illnesses like eating disorders. 


In this episode you will hear a lot of dysregulation, resistance,
and resentment. Please know that Laurie and Sara are good - this
is the reality of being in close friendships with BPD. We still
love each other very much and have discussed how difficult this
was for both of us at great lengths since recording.
