📣 Christy Kriese didn't leave her house for two and a half months. Then real food brought her back, and she never picked up the medication her psychiatrist wanted to add next.
📋 This is Christy's first-ever podcast appearance, originally recorded on Less of Me Success Stories in August 2024. She walks through a childhood of trauma and neglect, a 22-year history with depression and anxiety medication, and a post-viral illness that triggered the worst episode of her life. Bone broth was her first bite back, and carnivore became the thing that finally held.
🔑 What You'll Learn
- How a post-viral illness triggered her worst depressive episode yet
- Why bone broth was her first step back to eating
- The physical changes she didn't expect from carnivore, from motion sickness to joint pain
- What 22 years of medication tapering actually looked like
- Why she believes both medication and nutrition have a place in recovery
