Posted @withrepost • @chr1styharrison It’s unfortunate that the eating-disorder community is so weight-focused. In fact, in many cases a person may not receive an eating disorder diagnosis because their healthcare providers don’t recognize that people of ALL sizes can be struggling with restrictive eating and other disordered behaviors. Not only does this weight bias prevent people from feeling seen and from having their experiences validated, but it has material and financial consequences. Getting care for an eating disorder is hard enough, but the insurance companies rely heavily on diagnoses. And if you don’t have one? Well, then you don’t won’t qualify for coverage on your recovery treatment.—————————————————-This is bigger than simply validating someone’s lived experience—though I would argue that validating someone’s lived experience is actually just as important as providing monetary support for recovery. This is about access, privilege, and oppression. Weight needs to be taken off the table in terms of diagnosis and treatment, and the eating-disorder community needs to be looking at weight-inclusive strategies for healing and eating-disorder detection.—————————————————-If you want to hear more about HAES, intuitive eating, and body liberation, head on over to wherever you get your podcasts and download the latest episode of Food Psych today!—————————————————-And if you’re ready for a deeper dive into all things anti-diet, come check out my intuitive eating online course at christyharrison.com/course ❤️—————————————————-#haes #intuitiveeating #edrecovery #antidietproject #antidiet #riotsnotdiets #effyourbeautystandards #losehatenotweight #lifebeyonddieting #thelifethief #balancednotclean #foodisfuel #prorecovery #bodyposi #bodypositive #bopo #foodpsychpod #foodpsych #feminism #healthateverysize #nourishnotpunishhttps://www.instagram.com/p/B1xMLcIjtX6XUn9AxaWX8O-ZIflJ3mIY4QXUCw0/?igshid=xmhgut00ae23 -- source link
