Anorexia
I hate myself, I will never be good enough, I look disgusting, I am so fat. If I could lose just ten more pounds That guy would like me. I ate a big meal yesterday so I won't allow myself to eat today. But I will pick at my food so my mom will think I ate or I will tell her I ate at school. Maybe if I just eat the lettuce with no dressing it won't have many calories?
Bulimia
I was really hungry but I can't believe I ate that gigantic cheeseburger and fries. I am so disgusted with myself, what is wrong with me. I have to get rid of it, if I purge I won't put the weight on and I won't be so disgusting.
Binge eating
When I eat I feel better. Food really comforts me. It helps me deal with my stress. But then I don't feel so well. Maybe I just ate too fast. Now I feel sick. I only was going to eat a few cookies, before I knew it the whole pack was gone.

James 5:14
Is anyone among you sick? Let them call the elders of the church to pray over them
and anoint them with oil in the name of the Lord.
