Wednesday, 7 February 2018 - 5:00pm to 5:30pm

This week on Brainwaves, the team reviews the film "Feed"; a film written, produced and starring Troian Bellisario which draws on her experience of anorexia as a teenager. The film portrays the downfall of 18-year-old Olivia as she deals with an eating disorder after the tragic death of her brother. 

This episode contains spoilers for the film and discusses some of the heavy themes in the film including disordered eating, death, grief, and hospitalisation. If you require any support please contact Wellways' Helpline on 1300 111 500 or The Butterfly Foundation online or on 1800 33 4673.
