  • Why Eating Still Breaks Down for Neurodivergent People With Long-Term Eating Disorders

    Why Eating Still Breaks Down for Neurodivergent People With Long-Term Eating Disorders
    Feb 13 2026

    Why does eating still feel impossible for neurodivergent people with long-term eating disorders, even after insight, treatment, and real effort?

    In this episode, Dr. Marianne Miller explores the hidden sensory, executive functioning, and nervous system friction that causes eating to keep breaking down in daily life. This conversation moves beyond motivation, fear foods, and traditional recovery advice to name the invisible moments when hunger arrives too late, meals require overwhelming cognitive energy, sensory overload interrupts eating, masking replaces body awareness, or a nervous system crash follows nourishment.

    You’ll learn why neurodivergent eating disorder recovery often stalls inside standard treatment models, how chronic eating disorders can reflect adaptation rather than failure, and what actually supports sustainable nourishment for people living with ARFID, anorexia, bulimia, binge eating disorder, and long-term restrictive or chaotic eating patterns.

    This episode offers a neurodivergent-affirming, trauma-informed, and weight-inclusive framework for understanding why eating still feels so hard—and how recovery can begin by reducing friction instead of increasing pressure.

    If you’re searching for realistic eating disorder recovery, support for ARFID in adults, or compassionate care that centers sensory needs and autonomy, this conversation is for you.

  • Anorexia & Night Eating Syndrome: Why Restriction Fuels Night Eating & What Helps

    Anorexia & Night Eating Syndrome: Why Restriction Fuels Night Eating & What Helps
    Feb 11 2026
    Night eating can feel confusing, distressing, and isolating for people living with anorexia, especially when restriction shapes daytime eating. Many adults limit food during the day and then experience intense hunger, urgency to eat, or automatic eating at night. This pattern often creates shame and the belief that recovery is failing. In this episode, Dr. Marianne Miller explains why anorexia and night eating syndrome frequently overlap and how daytime restriction drives nighttime eating through biological survival responses and nervous system stress. She reframes night eating as adaptation rather than loss of control and challenges treatment messages that rely on shame or rigid control. This conversation centers trauma-informed, neurodivergent-affirming eating disorder recovery and introduces non-punitive tools that support regulation, safety, and sustainable change. Why Anorexia and Night Eating Syndrome Often Occur Together Many clinical frameworks treat anorexia and night eating syndrome as separate or opposing diagnoses. In practice, restriction, energy deficit, and nervous system activation during the day often lead the body to seek nourishment at night when threat levels feel lower. Night eating in anorexia does not reflect a failure of discipline. It reflects a biological and neurological survival response to deprivation, chronic stress, and unmet energy needs. Understanding this connection reduces shame and opens the door to more effective, compassionate eating disorder treatment. How Daytime Restriction Fuels Nighttime Eating Restriction includes more than eating small amounts of food. It can involve delaying meals, limiting food variety, suppressing hunger signals, or following rigid food rules that keep the body in a constant state of vigilance. When restriction continues across the day, the body tracks energy debt, stress hormones rise, and hunger intensifies. Nighttime may become the first moment when eating feels possible or safe. This cycle explains why night eating in anorexia can persist even when someone feels committed to recovery. Why Shame and Control Do Not Resolve Night Eating Common advice such as eating more during the day often overlooks nervous system safety, trauma history, and neurodivergent sensory needs. Increasing pressure or tightening rules usually strengthens the restriction and night eating cycle rather than resolving it. Reducing shame and supporting regulation creates conditions where change can occur without punishment or fear. Supportive Approaches That Address Root Causes Recovery-supportive care focuses on safety, predictability, and nervous system regulation rather than control. Daytime nourishment becomes more sustainable when eating feels safe enough and emotionally tolerable. Removing moral judgment from night eating reduces the restriction-shame cycle that keeps symptoms active. Gentle structure can support regulation without imposing rigid rules, and trauma-informed, neurodivergent-affirming treatment allows the body to receive nourishment without overwhelming threat. When these conditions develop, night eating often softens naturally over time. Who This Episode Is For This episode speaks to adults living with anorexia and night eating syndrome, people who restrict during the day and eat at night, and individuals navigating chronic eating disorders or recovery that feels stalled despite effort. It also supports neurodivergent adults managing sensory needs around food and anyone seeking weight-inclusive, trauma-informed eating disorder therapy that honors autonomy and lived experience.

  • Anorexia in Higher-Weight Bodies: Rethinking “Atypical Anorexia” & the Restrictive Eating Spectrum With Dr. Jennifer Gaudiani, MD @gaudianiclinic

    Anorexia in Higher-Weight Bodies: Rethinking “Atypical Anorexia” & the Restrictive Eating Spectrum With Dr. Jennifer Gaudiani, MD @gaudianiclinic
    Feb 9 2026
    What if anorexia is being missed simply because of body size? In this powerful and deeply validating conversation, I sit down with eating disorder physician Dr. Jennifer Gaudiani, MD @gaudianiclinic to explore why the term “atypical anorexia” can obscure real medical risk, delay diagnosis, and reinforce weight stigma across healthcare systems. We discuss what has changed since the first edition of Sick Enough, why weight stigma remains foundational to eating disorder harm, and how current research is reshaping clinical understanding of restrictive eating, ARFID in adults, digestive illness, neurodivergence, chronic medical conditions, and long-term eating disorder recovery. At the center of this episode is an urgent truth for 2026: severe eating disorder suffering does not require being underweight. What We Discuss in This Episode Throughout this conversation, we examine why most people with anorexia are not underweight and how weight stigma continues to shape who gets believed, diagnosed, and treated. Dr. Gaudiani shares what is new and expanded in the second edition of Sick Enough, including updated medical research on binge eating disorder, ARFID across the lifespan, atypical anorexia, and the broader restrictive eating spectrum. We also explore the critical role of gastrointestinal pain, mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS), postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), and complex chronic illness in both driving and worsening restrictive eating patterns. This discussion highlights why many adults with ARFID remain misdiagnosed for years, how neurodivergence such as autism and ADHD intersects with eating disorders, and why neurodivergent-affirming, weight-inclusive, trauma-informed care is essential for meaningful recovery. Key Themes for Eating Disorder Recovery in 2026 We further discuss harm reduction, autonomy, and realistic pathways for people living with long-term or chronic eating disorders, including how rebuilding trust after medical trauma can reopen the possibility of healing. Rather than framing recovery as “full recovery or nothing,” this episode explores how supporting quality of life, medical stability, and patient-directed goals can actually improve outcomes. These themes reflect major shifts happening in eating disorder treatment in 2026, including movement toward weight-inclusive medicine, trauma-informed care, recognition of ARFID in adults, support for chronic eating disorders, and clinical models that affirm neurodivergent lived experience. About the Guest Dr. Jennifer Gaudiani, MD @gaudianiclinic is a board-certified internal medicine physician and one of the leading medical experts in eating disorder care. She is the founder and medical director of the Gaudiani Clinic, a weight-inclusive outpatient medical practice providing specialized treatment for eating disorders, undernourishment related to complex medical conditions, and trauma-informed primary care across the United States via telemedicine. Dr. Gaudiani previously served as medical director at the ACUTE Center for Eating Disorders and is the author of Sick Enough: A Guide to the Medical Complications of Eating Disorders, a widely respected clinical and patient resource now released in a fully updated second edition. Her work centers compassion, autonomy, and dignity for people in all body sizes seeking eating disorder recovery.
