“Guilt is a destructive and ultimately pointless emotion”

“One of the most dangerous myths surrounding eating disorders is that they are a life sentence.”

“Anorexia is not an illness of the body; it is an illness of the mind.”

“Anorexia cannot be cured by treating the physical symptoms alone; it is the mind which must be treated.”

“Eating disorder sufferers cannot be told to 'pull themselves together', to 'stop doing that' or to 'just eat'.”

“The good news, however, is that, also contrary to popular belief, full and lasting recovery from an eating disorder is possible.”

“Faith is not always about having positive emotional feelings toward God or life.”
