"One of the first actions we take at Passages is to ruthlessly scrutinize, always under a doctor's supervision and care, the specific necessity of any mind - altering or mood - altering medications that our clients are taking. As soon as any non essential drugs are out of their systems, the feelings they were trying to suppress usually emerge. When that happens, we can see what symptoms the client was masking with drugs or alcohol."

"I mean, okay, let's say we're all going to get better. Let's just pretend we will. Fine. Where are we going to go after we get better? What are we going to do with all of our newfound healthy behaviors? Back out into the world that screwed us up and screwed us over. This does not sound promising."

"The scabs feel like I have a message on my arm. Something that needs to be read, urgently, by someone. It was only years later that I realized the person I had written that message to- the person who wasn't listening- was me. I was the one who should have been staring at that arm, and working out what the red hieroglyphics meant. Had I translated them, I would have realized those red lines read: 'Never feel this bad again. Never come back to this place, where only a knife will do. Live a gentle and kind life. Don't do things that make you want to hurt yourself. Whatever you do, every day, remember this- then steer away from here."

"Female competition is when you are with a guy you like and you look around, see a girl who is prettier than you standing nearby, and think to yourself: 'I wish she wasn't here.' -This is what happens when you attach your identity and sense of worth to the amount of male attention you receive."

"Sacred blessings and divine opportunities appear in your life disguised as unforeseen changes and challenging circumstances."

"Male social conditioning encourages boys and men to aim to bed as many women as possible....so much so, that their self esteem and self worth become intertwined with the number of sexual partners they have; and when that number is low or even zero, so too is their self-confidence."

"You are your own soul mate, so love and treat yourself in the same way you would your life partner."
Self-Love
"If you ever want to know how a man truly feels about you, do absolutely nothing. Then you'll have your answer."
Relationship
"Take notice of what thoughts you choose to fill your mind with each day. Our thoughts draw to us whatever is dominating our mind, so always keep what you are thinking about in check."
Mindfulness
"Girls and guys, don't let anyone tell you who and what you should be into."
Freedom
"Don't say 'I'm a worrier and this is just who I am'....or 'I've always been a worrier, I can't help it'; instead decide from this day forward to become someone who DOESN'T worry."
