Food Psych #287: What Do Disordered Thoughts Mean About Your Recovery?
Christy answers an audience question about what disordered thoughts mean about your recovery. We also discuss how to handle the messages floating around online that frame recovery in black-and-white ways that ultimately aren’t super helpful for true healing, the role of social media and other algorithmic technologies in amplifying and incentivizing those messages, and how you might respond when you come across them.
