And then I would like to think that ARFID is becoming more widely discussed.
I feel like more people, certainly more parents that follow me on social media, they use that language or they'll say, my kid has ARFID or I've heard about ARFID.
It definitely over the past, since I became an eating disorder therapist, it's been a
15 plus years now, ARFID in particular seems to be more known and more discussed, but there's still, I feel like a lack of resources out there.
Most providers don't support ARFID or most eating disorder providers that I know don't support ARFID or it's like a big learning curve there.
So it's probably both more awareness, more incidents.
And I would like to think more, more professionals trained, but that's the lag I think.
I think as I define it, I want to be like right off the bat, I want to be really open about how controversial ARFID
It is even just sort of differing ways of thinking about ARFID, especially for this community, in part because ARFID, certainly if you asked me five years ago, 10 years ago, I might have just told you ARFID is a type of eating disorder.
I probably told you that on the show.

But as I've become more versed and trained in neurodivergent affirming models and
I am even personally at odds with how I think about ARFID now, because in some ways, we can look at ARFID as its own type of neurodivergence, which is sort of in conflict with calling it a disorder, right?
If we truly want to be affirming.
And so ARFID, in some ways, we want to think about it both as a type of neurodivergence and...
It can be like life-threatening, right?
It can be severely impairing if you think about avoidant and restrictive food intake behaviors even, right?
