I Feel Trapped in a Human Body

Last year, I went through a second puberty. It wasn’t something I planned to share. But as I tossed and turned one night, I knew I had to let the words flow out of me. So I grabbed my phone, opened the VoiceMemos app, and started talking about my recent body changes.

The recording captured several neurodivergent experiences of eating disorders, including:

• Fear of growing up and being healthy
• Physical and hormonal changes as a result of puberty
• Feeling trapped in a human body
• Underlying reasons for always needing to be “productive”
• My complex relationship with gender identity

This podcast isn’t about me having my life “figured out” – rather, it’s an honest, raw, and vulnerable expression of some of my current struggles. My hope is to connect with anyone else dealing with similar challenges, and to provide hope that we will get through it together 💗
