Listen "Eating Disorders on College Campuses"
Episode Synopsis
College campuses offer a whole host of newness, which in addition to increased stress/workloads, the freedom to eat constantly available food, and a growing sense of displacement from home may contribute to an eating disorder arising, resurfacing, or worsening for many young women and men. Further, toxic habits imposed by drinking culture, greek life, or athletic groups may reinforce distorted thoughts around food or body image, thus aggravating the entanglement of disordered eating and college culture. This is discussed in depth in today's episode, in addition to anecdotes from our host, Kiera Russo, who is a college student recovering from an ED. Jaeden Luke's original song, entitled "Beautiful" is also featured in this episode, which may be found on Spotify!
