Why we obsess over our bodies during times of stress

Talking Out Loud with Danae

The world is heavy right now, and so many of us are obsessing over our bodies more than before.
Here clinical psychologist and vice president of MEEDA Carine El Khazen explains why that is. We talk about dangerous coping mechanisms, the temptation to turn to things we can control, and why weight loss seems to be on everyone's minds during the pandemic.
For the perfectionists out there, Dr. Khazen explores how the need to do everything right can make so many of us lose our real voice, and why approval is a dangerous goal.
And for the folks interested in the Middle East, Dr. Khazen discusses how MEEDA (Middle East Eating Disorder Association) is changing recovery in the region.
