I love the honesty in how it's not always so easy to be cured - Many people do a good job of letting others think that recovery is easy and that all EDs are simply forgotten. Another favorite thing that she said is that we are all human beings and basically that our EDs do not define us. So very true!!Binge Eating Disorderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18241625046150795076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-44857714951784305922008-07-16T14:27:00.000-04:002008-07-16T14:27:00.000-04:00Awesome, awesome interview, Stephanie.

You see a lot of tv shows and movies which have characters who were sober for years going through a difficult period or relapse. But you hardly ever hear about anyone who has relapsed with an ED (in fact, you don't hear about ED much at all on movies or tv). So it's great to hear someone sharing their story, to help all those out there who might feel alone and to help people get through it again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1704170106558126102.post-41291564058220124452008-07-14T12:52:00.000-04:002008-07-14T12:52:00.000-04:00Great interview.
