Weight-Loss Apocalypse

This client suffered from anorexia and bulimia for over 30 years. After working with Robin a year earlier, she's found that her suffering has returned. In this session, they discuss how this relapse into thin supremacy has automatically increased her urges to diet, and impulses to binge and purge.

In this session, they discuss her intense suffering for over 40 years. How could such a huge part of her life disappear within a few short weeks? Robin describes her theory on eating disorders, not as a disease or disorder, but as a syndrome. She wrote this content in her book, Body Supremacy: Exploring the Torments of Eating Disorders as a Syndrome. This session was recorded May 2021.

In this session, she opens up about the psychological abuse she's experienced with her husband. She's been manipulated and treated as if she's his property. Robin describes this as narcissistic supply in her book, Body Supremacy: Exploring the Torments of Eating Disorders as a Syndrome. In this session, they discuss her eating disorder and OCD as coping structures used to survive in her "Stockholm syndrome" or battered-wife syndrome.

In this session, they discuss having to face all of her fears, without impulsively escaping with her OCD behaviors. The terror that underlies obsessive compulsive behaviors will eventually demand your attention, otherwise you'll "lose your mind." This client describes herself surrendering to that terror, and accepting what it was and how it felt, so that she might experience life without her OCD behaviors.

In this session, they discuss codependency. The Karpman's Drama Triangle describes the relationship between the perception of being a victim, the person or situation you feel is persecuting you, and a rescuer that is sought out to make things better. This triangle is a toxic and dysfunctional way of relating that perpetuates anger, resentment, fear of the future, and exhaustion. Robin wrote about this in her book Diet Supremacy: The Toxic Bond Between Shame, Dieting, and Emotional Eating.

In this session, they discuss why her impulses to binge are subsiding as she changes the way she thinks about her relationship with her mother. When she's angry and resentful about her mom, her desire to eat increases. When she takes responsibility and reduces the victim feelings, her desire to eat decreases. As people address and resolve the emotions that underlie their desires to eat, binge eating can be seen as a coping mechanism, rather than an "addiction." This is described in Robin's book, Diet Supremacy: The Toxic Bond Between Shame, Dieting, and Emotional Eating.

In this session, they discuss the costs and rewards people pay and get out of eating disorders. The hardest part o recovery, is allowing yourself to feel weak, incapable, and lost without the goals and identity of dieting, bingeing, and your eating disordered goals and behaviors.

In this session, they discuss the sadness and loss people feel when they see the cost of the years wanting to lose weight, dieting, and binge eating. There is real loss both physically, and in life when a person devotes their life to shame about their body, wanting thinness to a fault, and devoting the mind to obsessing over dieting and food. In this session, Robin describes the final steps in the recovery process.

This is a great discussion about this clients suffering and misery, and what it took to shift her mind to reject her eating disorder. She reached out to Robin a couple years prior, and has continued to remain Eating Disorder FREE ever since.

In this session, we discuss the anger and resentment she's held for decades about her mother. Her mother was the school counselor, so she felt as if she couldn't ask for help when she was young at school. She couldn't talk to her teachers, because her mother was the counselor, and she felt she didn't have a voice. She was put on a diet at a very young ate (~7 yrs old), and ended up resenting her mother, diets, and that she had to restrict food when all of her friends and school mates were allowed to eat whatever they wanted.

In this session, they discuss how people can hide their anxiety and underlying fears with behaviors and habits that keep them unaware. Many people don't feel their fear, anxiety, or levels of terror until they give up those behaviors or are forced to stop.

This is her last session with Robin, and they discuss her progress and what's changed. When she reached out for help she was bingeing daily. After 20 hours of work, over the course of four months, she can't remember the last time she binged.
