Disordered eating is something that so many people, especially women, have experienced. Sometimes this is so normalised by society that we don’t even realise our approach to food is disordered or could be defined as such. 

We’re joined by psychiatrist Dr. Kieran Kennedy. Kieran is consultant psychiatrist specialising in the diagnosis, support and treatment of a range of eating disorders and body image struggles; everything from binge eating disorder, bulimia nervosa, body dysmorphia and the intersection between fitness, appearance pressures & mental health.

Today we speak about:
How you may have disordered eating without even realising it
Women identify more with disordered eating but rates of men and all genders are increasing - ‘muscle dysmorphia’
The messaging around weight and eating is deeply ingrained in our culture
‘Health and fitness’ may be disordered eating in a different costume
Our relationship with food can impact our social and romantic lives
Whether you can comment on someone’s body 
Body image in the ‘ozempic era’
The link between disordered eating and depression, OCD, anxiety and ADHD
Binge eating disorder is by far the most common eating disorder
How we can recognise concerning body image thoughts in loved ones and kids
