In between recent visits to hospital wards to share her story, Ambassador Beth stopped into EDV to record her recovery story for you.

Beth's story covers:

  • The impact of a challenging home environment
  • Feeling voiceless in the treatment process
  • Hitting rock bottom, and getting back up again
  • Pursuing recovery based actions, without intending to recover
  • How a 'fear hierarchy' approach changed things
  • Managing the shapeshifting nature of relapse
  • Finding herself outside the eating disorder

Big thank you to Beth for sharing in such a considered, helpful way.
