Q&A: Nervous System Regulation, Identity, Extreme Hunger & Going All In During Eating Disorder Recovery
Q: Do you have any strategies for going all in with both food and exercise at the same time?
Focus on creating safety in your system instead of trying to stop both behaviors at once; self-compassion and nurturing should be prioritized.
Q&A: Nervous System Regulation, Identity, Extreme Hunger & Going All In During Eating Disorder Recovery
Q: How are you meant to figure out if these traits are down to the eating disorder or if they're just you?
Traits developed may be adaptations to survive but do not have to dictate your self-worth; the key is to assess if they serve you or keep you stuck.
Q&A: Nervous System Regulation, Identity, Extreme Hunger & Going All In During Eating Disorder Recovery
Q: My question is about extreme hunger. I never feel hungry. When I eat, I feel so uncomfortably full. Does everyone experience extreme hunger? Why don't I? Is my body broken?
Feeling extreme hunger is not universal; anxiety and disconnection can affect hunger cues, and it's important to be gentle with oneself.
Q&A: Nervous System Regulation, Identity, Extreme Hunger & Going All In During Eating Disorder Recovery
Q: What do you think are the most effective ways for someone to regulate their nervous system as they go through eating disorder recovery?
Regulation involves staying with oneself during discomfort and showing compassion rather than judgment.
