An #EatingDisorder history in #parents can reduce confidence in developing healthy eating habits and positive body image in their child. BUT you can rewrite your story and learn new child feeding skills! Excellent reporting from Margaret Wheeler Johnson Romper, in which I’m also interviewed.

Socio-Cultural Plenary @aed_iced 2022: “Eating Disorders at mid-life and beyond” - a very important session on the importance of screening and offering tailored treatments for #eatingdisorders in mid-life and older individuals regardless of their gender. Widely under diagnosed!

The plenary on atypical anorexia at #ICED2022 provides so many powerful examples of how weight bias leads to worse treatment and how we should be treating cognitions and behaviors not weight, not make assumptions about patients with EDs, and ensure treatments make for *everyone*

“Overweight” BMI least associated with early death #ICED2022

"Zip code is more predictive of health than BMI." "Full weight restoration is important among this group as well."👏 Some of many great points made by Rebecka Peebles talking about atypical anorexia. #ICED2022

Anorexia is anorexia and it can occur at all sizes. Nothing atypical about it. Love to hear Rebecka Peebles discuss this important topic... “is being fat worse than being sick?” #ICED2022

Jon interviewed Leslie Rutledge, Arkansas Attorney General, about why her state banned gender-affirming care for minors - ignoring the guidelines of major medical organizations and taking the decision out of parents’ hands. Watch the full interview on @AppleTVPlus

"Combatting the therapeutic nihilism and hopelessness that comes from ineffective and inaccessible treatment requires, first and foremost, a substantial increase in the availability, range, and quality of treatments for all patients with eating disorders." Thank you, James Downs

We still have a few low-fee therapy spaces left with our doctoral psychology externs. Taylor and Mikayla are in the second half of their year and have hit their stride. There's still time to get in a course of CBT-E (HAES-aligned) with them before the end of the year. CA only
