How would you describe any personal experience of shame around ED? Do you feel it in your body?
Something heavy on chest after imagining
Pressure in my bladder like I have to pee. And weird sensation and shaky hands
Tension and discomfort in my stomach and chest
Tension in my gut, and just an overall heavy feeling.

Sweating and a knot in my stomach. Rapid breathing
short breath and weird feeling in my stomach
It made me feel a bit sick
Makes me feel sick
I could feel my breath shifting from a deep belly-breath to a tighter chest-breath with the added feeling of pressure on my chest. I honestly thought shame wasn’t a big part of it, just the relaxing bit for me - but as I felt me dick shrivel up and get smaller I understood that, yes shame is a part of it. I guess now I have to start working on it…
A kind of moving, shuddering feeling in my chest. Perhaps also something knotted up in the chest.
sweaty palms, pressure on the chest
heavy chest, heavy emotions washing over me, teary eyes
Tightening up hunched shoulders repressing breathing
Feeling stupid and helpless
It feels like I’m drowning, just that gutter alike.
Its a heavy and warm feeling on my stomach and chest
Tightening in chest. Felt like breathing and heart were going faster.
Similar feeling to when I have to do a presentation at work. Like a sharp ache in my stomach
flush in the face, frightened
