“Shaving is always cathartic, much like showering, changing out of clothes, anything where what once was carried during a moment or period of distress is purged.”
― A.D. Aliwat, In Limbo

“The hatred that I harbored for Lou and Paul faded into the background. The cold, lonely mountains which once filled my mouth and mind with the madness of Zarathustra shifted into a lithium passivity. Even Wagner was nothing more than a jester for some cathartic writing, allowing me to purge the bales of contempt that I had for the man.”
― Dylan Callens, Operation Cosmic Teapot

“Dr. Varvinsky did not have to worry鈥攈e had allowed a slight irregularity, but he was a kind and compassionate young doctor. He understood that it would be too painful for someone like Mitya to find himself surrounded by thieves, swindlers, and murderers, and that he ought to be given a chance to get used to them.”
― Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

“In periods of binge eating in both Bulimia Nervosa and Binge Eating Disorder, reward is augmented when eating palatable foods. The release of dopamine to code reward continues during compensatory behavior.”
― Leighann R. Chaffee, A Guide to the Psychology of Eating

“Reward-related contributions to Eds instate disordered eating and hinder recovery.”
― Leighann R. Chaffee, A Guide to the Psychology of Eating

“Individuals with Eds evaluate food and body related cues as emotional events and these events trigger dysregulated responses, including deficits in healthy coping strategies and use of maladaptive strategies. Emotional dysregulation and disordered eating worsen in a vicious cycle: engaging in disordered eating, such as restricted food or purging, provides escape from negative emotion particularly when it is stimulated from a food or body related cue, like shopping for a new workout clothing.”
― Leighann R. Chaffee, A Guide to the Psychology of Eating

“Given that chronic undernutrition can harm cognitive processing, researchers postulate patients with Anorexia Nervosa use a habitual, rule-based tendency to abstain from immediate rewards and select the larger, delayed option. In contrast, patients with Bulimia Nervosa show impulsivity, a deficit in self-regulatory control.”
― Leighann R. Chaffee, A Guide to the Psychology of Eating

“Symptoms like distorted body image and lack of recognition for the severity of malnutrition demonstrate deficient interoceptive awareness and tend to persist after recovery, highlighting an important consideration for treatment.”
― Leighann R. Chaffee, A Guide to the Psychology of Eating

“Individuals who are perfectionists are more likely to comply with norms and to be critical of their own shape, and high trait perfectionism is a documented risk factor for anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa as it increases drive for thinness. Drive for thinness is notably predicted by anxiety sensitivity and poor interoceptive awareness, the ability to understand physiological and emotional cues within the body, critical to self-awareness in linking cognitive and emotional processes.”
― Leighann R. Chaffee, A Guide to the Psychology of Eating

“Parental concern for weight and weight teasing within the family predict Eating Disorder symptoms over a 5 year follow up. These factors may be coupled with the modeling of eating disturbances by family members, which reinforce the thin ideal and subsequent body dissatisfaction.”
― Leighann R. Chaffee, A Guide to the Psychology of Eating

“Risks for escalation from disordered eating to an ED include the use of food to cope with life events or emotions, adherence to restrictive or fad diets, and negative self-evaluation based on consumption or body image.”
― Leighann R. Chaffee, A Guide to the Psychology of Eating

“His face started morphing into different people, shapeshifting into wise, old, Indigenous men, as though he鈥檇 lived hundreds of lives and I was seeing him as he was in each one of them. I met many different people coming through to help with healing 鈥� shamans from centuries before 鈥� and I studied creases across their faces, wrinkle lines worn like badges of wisdom, markings of lives lived.”
― Dana Da Silva, The Shift: A Memoir

“Controlled mentalization, identification and understanding of emotional reactions, and emotional regulation are significant problems for eating-disordered patients. In general, bulimia nervosa patients show problems in emotional hyperarousal and flooding. The opposite, a dominance of detached and flattened effect, is typically seen in patients with anorexia nervosa.”
― Tom Wooldridge, Psychoanalytic Treatment of Eating Disorders

“鈥nteroceptive confusion and body image distortions are forms of impaired embodied mentalizing and expressions of pre-mentalistic thinking. For example, psychic equivalence demonstrates how patients鈥� painful self and affect states are expressed though extreme body hatred and the mistaken belief that being 鈥渟kinny鈥� will bring them self-acceptance, "confidence," and agency. The teleological stance explains the obsessive drive for thinness as a method to obtain self-acceptance and the approval of others. In short, subjugation of the body is a confused attempt to gain mastery and control over feelings of ineffectiveness and lack of self-worth.”
― Tom Wooldridge, Psychoanalytic Treatment of Eating Disorders

“Hypermentalization, frequently seen in patients with bulimia nervosa, is when the patient is so outer-directed that she is prone to obsessively interpreting others' minds but not in an accurate way. Hypermentalized fantasies about another's mind is an effort to meet and satisfy that person's perceived desires and needs (Buhl, 2002; Skarderud, 2007), and based on inaccurate interpretations of self/other mental states because of attachment anxieties. Similarly, pseudo-mentalizing is when the patient appears to be expressing or talking about feelings and thoughts, but the narrative lacks emotional connection. instead, words and expressions are empty of meaning and serve to defend against feelings of worthlessness, insignificance, or desolation (Skarderud & Fonagy, 2012).”

“The burn of my muscles felt like relief, as though I could purge the tension within me through microscopic tearing,”
