My Story, Anorexia to Australia

WARNING!!
 
This episode speaks about anoreixa, depression, suicide and self harm
 
For most of my adult life I have felt alone and lonely. I hope sharing my story will help people understand why I am the way I am, understand the complexities of anorexia, and understand that mental illness doesn’t have to define a person. I ran out of time to share all my story, But I will do a second episode about how I overcame my battle with anorexia and depression and what my mission in life has become based on my past experiences.

Liv :Food After Anorexia

There is so much to say on this topic & I'm sure I will feel I need to do another episode on it soon..A few things to know before you listen..I had an eating disorder for a decade... so that has massively informed my thoughts around food. Cereal was invented to make us consume more milk after the War... to drive a new industry in the UK.. We are not meant to consume milk that is meant to turn a tiny calf into a half ton cow, nor is cereal necessarily a healthy option. I am not a clinical phycologist, these are just my options and thoughts on the topicMuch of the food industry is constructed to make us consume sugar, dairy, fats etc.... Please remember the quest for major corporations to make $ is what drives so many of our food options. So don't be fooled by clever or misleading advertising... so much of what we are told is ‘good’ for us, is actually just good for someone’s wallet!
