Lydia Beiriger is a senior in high school in Indiana and takes Ivy Tech college classes in Horticultural Studies. She loves doing 4-H, crocheting, gardening, horseback riding, running, hiking and camping. She also loves doing yoga and has personally been blessed by listening to Monday Mindset With Isha Warriors and wants to bless the lives of others by sharing her story of struggling with anorexia and how she is striving to conquer it every day with the help of loved ones.
Lydia wants teens to understand the dangers of anorexia and negative ramifications she now has to deal with in her life because of the choices she made when she was younger and how it is OK to ask for help and keep asking for help because "eating disorders don't discriminate nor do they go away in a day...it is a rollercoaster ride that goes up and down...you are likely to relapse...so don't ever try to do it all on your own!!"
Show notes:
-Comparison started the downward spiral
-Anorexia is like a "2 year old I couldn't get away from, barking orders in my head; my constant companion."
-Because of anorexia:
Had no energy.
Had no motivation.
Was depressed.
Was constantly in pain/joints ached.
Gave myself arthritis.
Damaged my kidneys and liver.
I looked like a ghost.
-Things I do to help me be the boss of that toddler and get through the relapses.
Accept that you have an eating disorder.
Ask for help & keep asking for it.
Do yoga.
Connect with a dietician & therapists.
Learn the science behind the brain-change your mindset.
