In this episode, I talk about my journey with disordered eating & finding my way to intuitive eating / anti-dieting... all before I ever even knew that I had ADHD! But of course, learning that I did have ADHD made this entire journey make SO MUCH more sense. Intuitive eating changed my life. I went from obsessing 24/7 about food, restricting food, and my weigh on the scale to recovering from my binge eating disorder and being able to totally change my relationship with food, to the point of being able to happily coexist with sweets and treats in the house without bingeing. I wanted to share my story in the hopes that it would help others who have experienced a challenging relationship with food & their bodies, and now know that they are neurodivergent.
