    so glad to see you back on yt Michi. your willingness to discuss your personal experiences over the years has helped me personally find the strength to seek more information (Dr. Fox) and seek life saving treatment. theres not a ton of frank talk about comorbidities, particularly anx/controlled eating. thank you so so much for putting yourself out there and helping us understand ourselves along the way. 🙏🧿

    I can tell you from personal experience that you can change your body and mind with fasting. Comorbidities disappear and mental clarity can be achieved by not eating the garbage most people call food.
    Thanks for sharing your experience and your beautiful personality ❤ blessings from America.
    If you're interested in taking charge of your life start with your diet and lifestyle choices... you can choose independence and health. Fasting on fresh fruit juice is the most incredible thing I've ever done and I'm sure if you are brave enough to go through all that struggle you already have then you could definitely do a fast.

    • @MichiMavros
      @MichiMavros  Před 2 lety

      I appreciate the sentiment, I think “fasting” would be super dangerous in my state because I need a high caloric intake, going into treatment soon and hopefully they teach me proper nutrition, thanks for the comment :)

    I get that. I’m in the U.S. and it’s been so hard accessing treatment. I’ve been in two DBT classes that I wasn’t able to complete through no fault of my own. The thing with anorexia is we can look normal, even well. It’s a coping mechanism and can hide other issues.

    @jordsupp Před 2 lety

    Through covid, the Oz government increased the number of free visits (under their mental health plan scheme) from 5 to 10. It's an excellent initiative, except that we dont have anywhere close to enough psychologists to meet demand, let alone psychiatrists (if medication is indicated).

    • @MichiMavros
      @MichiMavros  Před 2 lety

      wow that’s a great idea if it were able to executed properly, too bad it seems resources are spread a bit thin there as well but the initiative is a great start. Hopefully in time our government will put more incentives in place for people to work in the mental health field!!!
