درباره این اپیزود
In this deeply insightful episode, Dr. Cristina Castagnini sits down with Rachel Frost, a psychiatric nurse practitioner and eating disorder recovery coach who shares her powerful 17-year journey through an eating disorder and substance use. Rachel opens up about the "holding pattern" many individuals face when battling co-occurring disorders, where substance use masks the underlying shame of an eating disorder and vice versa. They navigate the complex modern landscape of "food noise," GLP-1 medications, and the pitfalls of using stimulants like Vyvanse as a "band-aid" for binge eating without addressing the root causes of trauma and self-worth. This conversation serves as a vital reminder that true healing requires more than just stopping a behavior—it requires choosing to inhabit a "big life" rather than a "small body."
