Walter Kaye Quotations

The people who recover actually do pretty well in life,

they hate their phobias and want to get rid of them. But these women with anorexia simply think, 'This is the way we are.'

A certain amount of harm avoidance is a good thing. You want to worry about stuff. It keeps you alive,

You try starving yourself to death, ... It's like holding your breath. After a while, your physiology is going to scream, 'Breathe!'

I look at it very much like depression, ... All of us can get depressed. If somebody dies in the family, and you don't get depressed, there's something wrong with you. But there's a small percentage of people who have major depressive disorders. It's the same kind of thing with bulimia and anorexia; it's a spectrum.
