Break The Wall

Using theatre and performance workshops to tear the wall down between ED clients and practitioners. #ABITEsizedConversation | ICED 2020 Expert By Experience

[Break The Wall @BreakThe_Wall]

Fascinating conversations surrounding the food industry, intuative eating and food security at today’s #ICED2020 Wildcard Plenary. The food industry has such a huge part to play in public health and work needs to be done to tackle the mass of debilitating messages it promotes!

@fairysatellite I suppose we then need to consider what a ‘real body’ is? Do we then run the risk of going the opposite way and shaming bodies that are naturally ‘unreal’ to others?

@MarciRD @FionaBodyPosAus @TFFED I just found it on the virtual programme... I’m not sure how helpful that is for you 😂

[Break The Wall @BreakThe_Wall]

Big steps need 2 be taken 2 ensure that BIPOC & LGBTQI people are included in ED truma studies. Currently they’re not inclusive & cannot represent a full picture or measure of truma. Scout from @TFFED thank you for ensuring that social justice is reflected in research. #ICED2020

How do we educate teachers about neutral food language in early years? Great discussions and activity as part of the Translating Research into Public Health Policy and Practice. Consideration of ethnicity, economic background and gender needs to play a part in the design of this

@MarciRD @FionaBodyPosAus @TFFED This was part of a discussion that came up as part of the AED SIG: Truma & Eating Disorders 👌🏻

Is anybody else unable to access various ticketed events with this message? I can’t a stream link via the description? @aedweb @ANZAED1 #ICED2020

[Break The Wall @BreakThe_Wall]

@JacquiCake @ianframpton I absolutely agree. There was so much more additional work that needed to be done to understand and work through the truma of treatment both as a client and within the family unit. Truma as something you encounter when choosing to get help for something you want to keep (ED)

[Break The Wall @BreakThe_Wall]

Do we need to be considering the very experience of having an ED as truma? What would treatment of ED truma look like? Is there already research into this? How would this differ to the treating of the ED itself? Our body as the reminder of our ED truma? #ICED2020

[Break The Wall @BreakThe_Wall]

@OpenMindMH I would imagine there are a huge amount of people! I was inpatient and then a day patient until I went to uni where I had no support for 3 years. It wasn’t until my MA year that recovery really became part of my life and did it alone.

[Break The Wall @BreakThe_Wall]

Inspired by the Biology Plenery this afternoon. Laura Hill’s discussiont wrap up was wonderful. I had never considered looking at temperament as part of a diagnostic process for both client and practioner - so obvious that this needs considering!

[Break The Wall @BreakThe_Wall]

Great discussions in #ICED2020 virtual networking about recovery through the lens of the patient + damaging effects of specific language choices. Recovery = reclaiming identity and being treated as a body not a diagnostic term. We need to be looked at people of strength 🙌🏻

[Break The Wall @BreakThe_Wall]

A wonderful start to #ICED2020. Janet Treasure’s keynote was wonderful. Her focus on loss of identity in relation to having an AN was incredibly thought provoking and absolutely true! We do lose ourselves to our EDs and this needs to be recognised and reflected in treatment 🙌🏻

[Break The Wall @BreakThe_Wall]

@fairysatellite I found this so interesting! Something I had never considered before yet seems to obvious!

[Break The Wall @BreakThe_Wall]

Thank you @EDPSGExeter for hosting me this #EDAW2020 @UniofExeter. It was a pleasure to perform #ABITEsizedConversation for you and to open up discussions around diagnosis and language. #EDAW2020 #ABITEsizedConversation

It was a delight to perform #ABITEsizedConversation yesterday for members of the Clinical Psychology department @UniofExeter. A rich and fruitful conversation was had - made all the more better by a good boogie! Thank you for watching and joining the fight with me.
