EP 7: Social Media & It’s Impact on Disordered Eating & Your Mental Health

Have you ever wondered if there was a link between social media & eating disorders? Today, I talk about the 3 types of pressure we experience linked to disordered eating & how social platforms are directly tied to the state of your mental health. 

Of course there can be some good in connecting with others on social, as well as community support, finding entertainment, friends, & more. However, the truth is that if you are someone who struggles with an unhealthy food & body relationship, it's extremely important to watch what enters into your mind....because FOMO is real y'all, and comparison will have you depressed, full of anxiety, & relapsing into old ways as a means to feel valued, affirmed & seen.

You will NOT want to miss today's episode FULL of FIRE & research linking social media to negative impacts on your mental health, especially those of disordered eating behaviors. I also discuss how you can navigate social during ED recovery & some best practices I use in my daily life to limit the amount of time spent on Facebook, Instagram & others.

If you constantly find yourself comparing your body to those influencers on your Insta reels, then this one is for you my friend.

with love & purpose,

lindsey
