Anorexia Nervosa

Just a summary of this illness.. "Anorexia Nervosa is an eating disorder characterized by refusal to stay at even the minimum body weight considered normal for the person's age and height ." This definition is from the source of Psychology Today..In terms of my words,I think i would describe it as wanting to be as thin/skinny as possible..People who have this kind of illness will want to keep on dieting;keep on getting thinner and thinner eventhough they are already seriously underweight..They have uncounsiously store it at the back of their mind that they need to be as thin as possible to be beautiful;to gain their confidence..Sorry to say that it ain't true actually..They are only jeapordizing their own health,making their parents sick with worry..

PS:Thus,to all girls or women or whatever you call yourselves,please appreciate your own life;your own health,your own body..Do not spoil your health just because you want to be beautiful..Beauty is only SKIN DEEP !

More Details !!

Just a gist of what i've read through just now..i think generally speaking , eating disorder is like a illness where the affected person could not control his/her eating habits..Such as the amount of food to be stomached at a time OR the total meals to be had in a day..Normally those with eating disorder illness tends to eat very little or skip theirs meals altogether..Hmm..Why do they do this ?? I think it's from some kind of great concern or depression over their figure/body weight..This illness happens mostly to teenagers or adolescence , ESPECIALLY the Womankind..And then this illness will slowly leads to another 2 more serious illness called anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa..That's all for now..Please leave me comments about it okay..
