Episode 11: Relationship Attachment Theory and How it Relates to Food

Have you every felt like having an eating disorder is similar to being in a toxic or abusive relationship? In this episode I explain the similarities between a toxic romantic relationship and a disordered relationship with food. I talk about the qualities of an "unhealthy attachment" to food vs. a "healthy attachment" to food. While there is no standard "normal" relationship with food, Meg shares a bit of what a healthy relationship with food looks like.
