A Subliminal Response, to a Sh*£%y Situation
Manage episode 307766532 series 3004577
In this weeks episode, Han is joined by Dave Chawner. Dave is a number 1 best-selling author, award-winning stand up, presenter, and mental health campaigner.
I first came across Dave's genius comedy which works to change the tone around mental health when I watched his TedTalk (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqbL-UhhyPk) about his experience of Anorexia Nervosa. Dave now uses comedy in order to talk to hard to reach groups about mental health, which led to Dave producing Comedy for Coping, a course for individuals to gain peer support, celebrate good mental health, and build their identity further to recovery.
In the podcast, we take a similar structure to Dave's book, Weight Expectations: One Man's Recovery from Anorexia. Together we talk about Dave's love of writing a diary, and explore the many stages of eating disorder recovery including pre contemplation, contemplation, preparation, relapse, action and maintenance.
Within these stages, we discuss topics like denial, loneliness, early intervention, identity, numbing, addiction, sex drive, recovery & fun, highs and lows, and understanding that not everyday will be perfect.
This episode is packed with great advice, stories, and I promise you'll have a giggle along the way!

Please note that we do discuss topics that some individuals may find triggering including anorexic behaviours and alcohol addiction.
