A truly real thing that can happen: A man experiences excessive rage when driving that causes him to overreact and drive dangerously. One day during a fit of said rage, he erratically drives on the wrong side of the road and is hit by a tractor trailer, caving in his rib cage making it nearly impossible to breathe, causing damage to almost all his organs, and is bleeding internally. All of his hair falls out too, and his pleather pants are ruined, by the way. Once he's taken to the ER, the trauma surgeon takes one look at him and says, "Before we save your life, we really need to get down to the root cause of why it is you drive like a lunatic. We'll repair the lacerations to your lungs, remove your ruptured spleen, and give you blood transfusions in the fullness of time but your rage driving addiction doesn't care about your well-being so we should address that first. We need to create a plan that encourages sensible driving habits first and foremost."
If that therapist exists, that is the advice she is giving Chantal. Chantal does not have the time to learn to eat intuitively. No one her size can eat intuitively. She's too mentally ill for that even to be an option. The hell of it is, Lind(o or a) Bacon exists. There are shitty therapists who are so terrified of being labeled fatphobic or are in thrall to anti-science wokeness that I can believe some idiot somewhere is telling a woman so near death that she can barely breathe to take her time and learn intuitive eating. That's just the fucking world we've built for ourselves.
