Black text on white background. Transcribed text: Humeyra believed there was something markedly similar about the experience of being overweight and being prone to melancholy. In both cases society blamed the sufferer. No other medical condition was regarded this way. People with any other illness received at least a degree of sympathy and moral support. Not the obese or the depressed. You could have controlled your appetite…You could have controlled your thoughts…But Humeyra knew neither her weight nor her habitual despondency was really a personal choice. — Elif Shafak 10 Minutes 38 Seconds in This Strange World
