Eating Disorders: The Hidden Addiction with Rebekah Bardwell

The eating disorder takes on a life of it's own. It becomes addicting. The act of purging is addicting. The act of restricting is addicting.
Rebekah Bardwell takes listeners on a compelling journey into the world of eating disorders in this episode of 'NPC in the 413'. She opens up about how these disorders can become addictive, explaining that behaviors like purging and restricting can release natural opiates in the brain, creating a cycle that's hard to break. Bardwell also touches on binge eating, particularly on sugary and carb-heavy foods, and how it can become an addiction for some people.
This episode isn't just about the struggles; it delves into the science behind these behaviors, offering a deeper understanding of why they occur. Whether you're grappling with an eating disorder yourself or trying to support someone who is, Bardwell's insights provide valuable knowledge and empathy. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand the complex nature of eating disorders and the addictive patterns that often accompany them.
