It has begun!
Very excited to present some of my #PhD findings on the psychophysiology of anorexia nervosa alongside an amazing line up of speakers on body image and eating disorders

@SWAN_Research_ @BiRDEvents_ Why am I always blinking in every photo I ever have of myself 😂

@TamsynVR Just to clarify - Only for those first bad 2-3 days though obviously I know you shouldn't be taking Panadol for more than a few days haha!
English
@TamsynVR Mine was bad for about 3 days - but took about a week to really feel over. But keeping up with recommended Panadol doses (every 8 hrs I think?) helped massively!

Had my 2nd Pfizer shot yesterday. How long does the lethargy last? I have two little kids to look after and I need it gone!

New article!📜✨Difficulties with sense of identity and internalised shame are prominent among people with BDD or OCD. We think these could be very important areas to target in treatment.

@Nurse_Andre @toddsampsonOz @RossellSusan @ben_buchanan @Channel10AU Thank you Andre, we were so pleased to meet you! I wish you all the best for the future :)

Thank you @toddsampsonOz, @DrAmyMalcolm @RossellSusan @ben_buchanan & @Channel10AU for being a platform for my voice. We have opened pandoras box & with it the ability to finally begin the conversation the world truly needs to have with itself. A conversation long overdue.

Thank you everybody who watched #mirrormirror on #channel10 and for your kind words. This documentary was incredibly difficult for me to film, but if there is one thing I want the world to take from this, it is to be mindful of how truly powerful both our words and actions are.

Thank you for watching #mirrormirror. If you’ve missed it, it’s on tenplay.com.au. There are also plenty of behind the scenes clips and even my own foray onto the table….worth a look.

P.S #MirrorMirror viewers! If you have BDD, please take our survey asking about your healthcare experiences in Australia! We know there are some major gaps - but we need to get the facts on why. Click here: swinuw.au1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_es…

And a big well done to the wonderful @RossellSusan and @SWAN_Research_ , @ben_buchanan and other amazing researchers @Scott1Griffiths @gemmasharp11 who are doing awesome work in these areas 😊🤩

Thank you @toddsampsonOz and Andre for coming to work with us and for helping people recognise and understand body dysmorphic disorder and muscle dysmorphia in #MirrorMirror! We desperately need more awareness, clinical training, and funding for these devastating conditions

This clip shows the extent of the suffering people with Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) endure. 0 out of 100 on self esteem. Well done Andre for sharing your story on camera. @toddsampsonOz

Very proud of Mirror Mirror - it’s still weird seeing myself on the TV! @Swinburne If you didn’t get chance to watch it you can download from 10play. Important documentary about body image. Informative, sensitive and so needed to raise awareness. Thank you to @toddsampsonOz

@COBYolland It's a good amount of time, so I should really start something... but it's not long enough to really get into anything... so doing nothing it is
English
Me: Ok 40 minutes before my next meeting, I could do [task A].
Also me: Or, I could do [task B].
30 minutes later me: Ah, so it seems we picked indecision and did nothing. Well played, anxiety. Well played.

It's a good day when you wake up and can share your first empirical PhD publication 🤸♀️
We found that people with #anorexia (both underweight and weight-restored) have increased arterial stiffness, which is associated with increased anxiety & depression
