On the ropes: Mary-Kate Slattery on how boxing helped her overcome anorexia, and the methods she uses to keep anxiety at bay


'I don't think that's a fair thing to say, actually; I think I was probably selling myself a little bit short there." Amateur boxer Mary-Kate Slattery is reflecting upon a comment she once made that she would never fully recover from the anorexia she was diagnosed with when she was 10. Now 24, she reflects that in fact, she no longer thinks the eating disorder will ever manifest again.
In part, it's the treatment she underwent and the work she has put in in the years since her diagnosis, including attending cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT). But it is also down to the boxing she took up in her first year as a law student - Slattery is now studying for a master's in international peace studies and conflict resolution in Trinity.
