Self Expression Beyond Body Image, Identity, Eating Disorders and Enduring Happiness w/ Tabby Galluccio

Tabby is about to inspire you to leave astray your eating disorder and chase your own authenticity!  Tabby Galluccio is a Musical Theatre student with a mighty love for all things performing arts! In this conversation, we explore the role eating disorders play (pardon the pun ;)) when it comes to how we identify and the difference between disordered joy vs. the real thing. We talk about the "type" of person that eating disorder attacks and learning to pivot your  perfectionism toward healthy, sustainable coping mechanisms that genuinely make you happy.   In this episode: Self expression beyond body image, identity Tabby’s experience with an eating disorder Musical theatre’s role in Tabby’s journey Enduring happiness vs. disordered euphoria Developing a new, sustainable incentive to be alive Self expression beyond one’s body Non-conventional forms of therapy Romanticising our own eating disorders The role of identity in the development of eating disorders Relationships in recovery What it’s like to have a starved brain The cause of eating disorders The type of person who develops an eating disorder Taking recovery initiative The impact of social media on teenagers Perfectionism and disordered eating The rippling impact of eating disorders on those around us // Plug in and prepare to be IMPOWERED. // Connect with Tabby! https://www.instagram.com/tabby_galluccio/?hl=en // Support Services: Eating Disorder Support Services: Lifeline Australia: Call 13 11 14 Beyond Blue Support Service: Call 1300 22 4636 The butterfly foundation: Call 1800 HOPE (1800 33 4673), https://butterfly.org.au Kids helpline: Call 1800 55 1800 Eating disorders victoria: 1300 550 236,  https://www.eatingdisorders.org.au National Eating Disorders Collaboration: https://nedc.com.au/eating-disorders/eating-disorders-explained/the-facts/eating-disorders-in-australia/ Eating Disorders Queensland: https://eatingdisordersqueensland.org.au General Mental Health Support Services (Helplines/Hotlines): https://www.mentalhealthhelp.com.au/service-directory/helplines/
