Mandy: ADHD, belongingness, and eating disorders (PART A)

Welcome to this episode of NeurospicED, Eating Disorders Neurodiversity Australia’s (EDNA) podcast.

This episode features Mandy Nolan (she/her) and Anna is the host. Mandy is an ADHDer registered psychologist with lived experience of an eating disorder characterised by bingeing and purging. This episode has been divided into two parts: A and B. While we were intending to release this episode earlier (episode 9), we have been delayed in the process.

In this episode, Mandy shares her journey through neurodivergence identification as she was diagnosed with ADHD in high school. She also discusses topics related to feelings of loneliness and belongingness. Mandy further shares her experience of having an eating disorder and undergoing treatment as an ADHDer.
