My first summer + here’s to many more. Life gets better ❤️

[Matt Haig @matthaig1]

I count progress in summers. 22 summers since my suicide attempt. Not free from depression. Not free from anxiety. Free from needing to die. Each year gives me strength, because it is another line I never thought I'd reach. The most impossible thing I ever did was somehow stay.

Eating disorders can affect anyone at any time - and it might not be who you expect.
This Eating Disorders Awareness Week, we want you to know you are not alone. Greater public awareness is needed. #EatingDisordersAwarenessWeek #EDAW2025 #AnyoneAnytime

[Cara Lisette @CaraLisette]

I hate it when people in eating disorder recovery say “if I can recover so can you”. Recovery relies on a whole load of circumstances coming together. I personally got to where I am today because I have a strong support network, access to treatment, financial stability…

[Dr Ju @juliaisobela]

Whenever I post about my mental illness & being in medical school, there is inevitably a reply like this

This fully demonstrates the stigma around severe mental illness & the low expectations people have for those with SMI & disabilities

We are more than just our illness

[Cara Lisette @CaraLisette]

What people think anorexia is:
• weight loss
• being thin
• not eating

What anorexia actually is:
• self hatred
• poor sleep
• constant anxiety
• food rituals
• deception
• depression
• guilt and shame
• loneliness
• rigidity in routine
• avoidance
• isolation

[Dr Chuks @theeatdisdoc]

Medical students have GOT to learn more about eating disorders. The illness prevalence is increasing, whilst the knowledge amongst clinicians seems to be decreasing. This has to be addressed.

[Nat ✨ @natprocyshyn]

@kjmck98 me too! so sad I missed them

[Cara Lisette @CaraLisette]

You don’t need to apologise for:

🌟 Showing your emotions
🌟 Needing some alone time
🌟 Putting in boundaries
🌟 Asking for help
🌟 Having a bad day
🌟 Being yourself

[Dr Chuks @theeatdisdoc]

I'm supporting the #dumpthescales march because the scale of the dump that the eating disorders services will be in (and arguably already in)—if we don't intervene quickly—will be enormous.

Let's do this! ✊🏾

[Nat ✨ @natprocyshyn]

@DoohanRachel I’m so sorry you’re having to see that at your workplace 😭 Sending good vibes your way, you got this 💪🏼

[Nat ✨ @natprocyshyn]

@DoohanRachel oh my gosh this is awful! who on earth would even come up with the idea 😭

[Nat ✨ @natprocyshyn]

@kjmck98 This is amazing to hear! Well done + congratulations 🥰

[Nat ✨ @natprocyshyn]

@kjmck98 this is amazing! congratulations 💓

Be kind to Medical Students Day

UK FPO Allocations out today

First year these have been RANDOMLY allocated

A lot of young talent being sent places for their first job they’ve never been, worked or chosen

This is terribly unfair

[Nat ✨ @natprocyshyn]

@kjmck98 can 1000% relate 😂

[Lars Ferguson 🇪🇺🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ @Lara_Fergie99]

This #WorldSuicidePreventionDay I wanted to talk about something a little different… Eating Disorders.

we are regularly told about the high mortality rates, but rarely speak of the fact the 1 in 5 people who die due to Anorexia do so by suicide.

[Doctors’ Association UK @TheDA_UK]

Our survey of UK medical students shows an already overcrowded medical education system under significant strain. Behind the headline of the doubling of medical school places...

@emjhall_ Awwww!!! So proud of you, lots of love ❤️

[Cara Lisette @CaraLisette]

Complimenting someone on weight loss is problematic for lots of reasons. What we are telling people is that they are better when they take up less space, and highlighting that we are paying attention to their bodies.

[Nat ✨ @natprocyshyn]

@DocxLu same here! I hate shoulders 🥲

[Nat ✨ @natprocyshyn]

@kjmck98 sending love ❤️
