This is what it says: “He does not get regular exercise, in part because he has a long-held theory that people are born with a finite amount of energy and that vigorous activity can deplete that reserve, like a battery.“

This is the paragraph I’m talking about

And that's big! So if you have the time this week, and you're able to listen, it would mean a lot to me. @scipsychedelics.bsky.social @prx.org 5/5

Listen, I don't know if psilocybin-assisted therapy will be the thing that fills the gap. But while learning about this treatment & speaking to a pediatrician who's running a clinical trial to treat severe anorexia, I felt hopeful about the possibility of better treatments for the first time. 4/5

This episode is also a personal one. I had anorexia in my early 20s. And although that part of my life has long been over, I wonder what recovery would have looked like if I'd had the support of a medication — something that could've jump-started the brain rewiring that's necessary in recovery 3/5

There's a lot that we still don't know, but early research shows promise. And that's a huge deal because there is still no medication that's approved to treat anorexia. So therapy, alone, is still the standard of care, and that often doesn't work. 2/5

ANYWAY if anyone wants a seasoned podcast host with years of video experience for their next "video podcast" --- I'm around lmao

and like... none of this is new. Rachel Maddow was putting out the audio of her talk show out on a podcast feed for like a decade before the practice became mainstream. That's how I accessed her show as a student back in Canada.

I realize that I'm fighting a battle I'll almost certainly lose, but I really do think we lose something when we dilute the audio space and begin to use the term "video podcasts" regularly.
