12 What Can We Do to Help Prevent? Personal attitudes, mindsets, perceptions Peer interactions- compliments and comments How to help a friend

13 Personal Attitudes & Perceptions Don’t have to be dangerously thin to be attractive. You can be your worst critic. Pictures in magazines are altered- don’t represent reality Accept body type- work with it, instead of fighting it Appreciate body for capabilities Body need to last a lifetime! Surround yourself with people who like you for your personality, not physical appearance. Find self-worth in areas like academic, athletic, personality, friendship, hobbies Focus on how body feels, not how it looks. Exercise to be fit and feel good, not to obsession. Seek help if feeling overwhelmed with stress or anxiety- sign of strength

14 Peer Interactions Stand up against rude comments that degrade others Compliments focused on talents, abilities, personality characteristics, sense of style… If concerned about weight, say “You don’t look like yourself. Are you okay?” (Focus on emotions) Keep negative thoughts to yourself AVOIDAVOIDAVOIDAVOID Comments regarding weight, clothes size, body type Comments like: “Don’t eat that ice cream, you’re getting fat.” “You can’t borrow my clothes- you’ll stretch them out.” “I can’t believe she stuffed her fat butt in those jeans.” “You don’t need that extra piece of pizza.”

15 How to Help a Friend Tell them you like them for who they are. Listen actively. Tell them you’re concerned about what you’ve seen and heard. Be specific & nonjudgmental. Do NOT monitor food intake. May cause further isolation and control. Tell trusted adult if concerned about safety. Ultimately person has to realize they need & want help before treatment will be successful. Be patient with friend and try not to let her completely isolate herself. Provide information about treatment resources and offer to go with them and wait during therapy.
