People like to say that OCD and eating disorders go together. They even sometimes like to use fancy words like “co-ocurring.” Then they talk about how OCD can explain the development of ED symptoms and sit back triumphantly as if they’ve solved the world's toughest rubik’s cube. Satisfying, right?

Meh, not really.. We’re setting the record straight and peeling back the layers on this so-called "connection" between eating disorders and OCD.

Tweetable Quotes

"When we talk about eating disorders and OCD, there's so much overlap because the entire premise of most restrictive eating disorders that have to do with body image is, by nature, obsessive and compulsive." - Rachelle Heinemann

"One of the most important pieces that you can give somebody who's struggling with this particular experience or a version of this experience is some space to ask some questions." - Rachelle Heinemann

“Living in your head to the extent where you ruminate and obsess and are anxious 24/7, is incredibly distressing." - Rachelle Heinemann

"Ultimately, this is one big mess and it is an incredibly distressing mess." - Rachelle Heinemann
