Relationships require hard work and communication, but when one partner is struggling with an eating disorder, it can test the strength of both individuals. Recovery and maintaining a relationship rely on mutual understanding and patience, acknowledging both partners are impacted by the disorder.
In this episode, Deena and Brian explore the dynamics of being in a relationship or marriage while one partner is undergoing treatment and the necessity of honest communication and support.
In this episode, you also hear:
- Difficulty of sustaining relationships
- Inviting people into your support system
- Team approach to treatment and recovery
Must-listen moments:
[00:02:23] I almost felt like I was cheating initially because I was in a relationship with him, and I was in a relationship with my eating disorder. And I'm going to say for sure that I love my eating disorder way more than I loved him at that time.
[00:12:17] Sometimes those people that support you are not the people you think are going to be the ones that support you. Sometimes you have to go outside of your circle to find that support.
[00:16:40] Even though I was the one with the eating disorder, we both went through hell and back, because while I was fighting for my life, he was trying to support me and keep our livelihood.
