You must not outsource your sense of self-worth or you will live at the mercy of everyone's opinion.

Remember: it’s not enough to remove the negative. That simply creates a void. Get the positive things on the calendar ASAP, lest they get crowded out by the bullshit and noise that will otherwise fill your days.

New @IntJEatDisord study estimates that a virtual version of the Body Project "is cost-effective for the prevention of eating disorders among young women in the Swedish setting, and thus is a good investment of public resources." Ata Ghaderi doi.org/10.1002/eat.24…
