The Voice of Disordered Eating
Negative self-image and negative self-talk is something that a lot of people struggle with. It’s that voice inside yourself that tells you that you aren’t good enough. It’s the voice that says you aren’t good enough because you don’t look a certain way. It’s the voice of comparison and feeling like you don’t measure up to other people. It’s the voice that tells you to alter your body to be more or less appealing to others. It’s the voice that focuses mostly on the challenges or struggles without acknowledging the positives. It’s the voice that takes over to offer a version of control when we are feeling so out of control. It’s the voice that we deal with internally and often don’t acknowledge out loud. It’s the voice that shames us. In some situations, this voice is labeled the voice of an eating disorder. There is a delicate balance between our internal struggle of self-awareness, self-improvement, and being our own worse critic.
Eating disorders can take many different shapes and forms. They are as unique to each individual as our own unique personalities. Sometimes eating disorders make you not eat enough, sometimes they make you want to eat too much, sometimes eating disorders will tell you your self-worth is based on how much you exercised or what you consumed that day.
