She also chronicles the lives of several patients whom she treats.

She shows that everyone, including experts, could benefit from having someone to talk to.

Take a step back every once in a while and notice what habits might not be serving you well.

What do you reach for when youre stressed out, anxious, or sad?

If you discover youre doing some unhealthy things, dont beat yourself up.

Be kind to yourself.

Look for healthier strategies to help you move through painful emotions so you could heal.

Quotes from Lori Gottlieb

Lori Gottlieb

Sometimes we are the cause of our own difficulties.

And when we can finally see that, we can make changes.
