Hello again... it's been a while since I've last posted an episode, but I'm proud to say that I'm back!! Relapse in eating disorder recovery is so common, and it can feel so disheartening. However, it is important to have a direct plan of action after every relapse. In this week's episode, I will include multiple steps you can take after a relapse from self-care to curating a comfortable and honest support network. Note that I am not a professional: there are just common coping mechanisms that may work for others. 

Also, I wanted to give a special shoutout to @maddiewward. In my worst relapse, she help to aid me in recovering from the situation. She texted me these beautiful words:

"You haven’t ruined your progress at all. This IS a part of the progress; how you react when you go backwards, and the way you change your reaction, is the progress. The reaction slowly becomes one of breaking the cycle rather than encouraging it. THAT is progress."

Thanks for listening!!
