Car Therapy Podcast is dedicated to giving people a platform to speak on, I need speakers. if youre interested in being on the podcast please email at Cartherapypod@gmail.com.   Everyone on Car Therapy is completely anonymous, all names used are pseudonyms.   Todays speaker talks about gaining weight, their experience as being a person of size (350 lbs) , how they got there, and what that did to their mental state.   As a pretext the guest is nonbinary, A sexual (Ace), and  ED= Eating Disorder. Stick around for the Q&A at the end- it gets GOOD.  

As always I hope you enjoy.
