96 - The Struggle of an Eating Disorder
Manage episode 415466756 series 3374336
[Here's a list of every past podcast episode, dealing with mental health]
From first grade through college, Seacoast family and staff member, Alexandra Hunt, battled eating disorders. She bravely recounts excessive exercising as a child, binge eating, and forcing herself to throw up in college. Well into adulthood, Alexandra realized that starving herself was not the answer. She is now focused on healing from a lifetime of low self-image and finding freedom in her nutrition and exercise routines.
Although it's not a struggle she considers to be completely in her past, Alexandra shares rich lessons she's acquired over the years including the importance of finding identity as a beloved child of the King and mindfully reshaping her relationship with health, food, and her body. She has learned that when one accepts God's love and takes captive dark thoughts (2 Corinthians 10:5), the lies will be exposed and rendered powerless. She teaches all of us to "boast all the more gladly in our weaknesses so that Christ's power may rest upon us” (2 Corinthians 12:9).
At the top of the episode, Joey, Lynne, Roy and Jack discuss "PC culture" and whether phrases like "you need a therapist" or "I'm so OCD" (said by a person without the disorder) are harmful or innocent.
