In this episode, I talk with Emily Feldman, OCD and eating disorder warrior and advocate, about the overlap between OCD and eating disorders. Here, we discuss..

• how rules, rigidity, and scheduling tendencies affected Emily's OCD and her eating disorder

• eating disordered behavior in general including mental restriction, orthorexia, and more

• Emily's advice for anyone struggling with the OCD/ED comorbidity
