There are many different kinds of eating disorders. Some people may not find them to be an issue but I think that it is not a good situation to be in. When someone has an eating disorder they usually have difficulty with self-esteem and other social problems. Therefore they think that by vomiting and/or not eating will help them deal with their problems. But in reality having an eating disorder only makes their lives more difficult. They usually experience mood swings and they can not help but think about their disorder all the time. By getting counselling and/or therapy this can help the people in this difficult situation.

I agree completly. Having an eating disorder affects a persons life. Most people decide to either stop eating, or throwing up their food is a way to solve all of their problems, when it really isn't at all.
ReplyDeletepeople change so much while having an eating disorder and seeing them change so much is so sad. they start to think differently of themselves and if they didn't mean to get an eating disorder, they get very upset seeing themselves change so much. eating disorders aren't fun and having to go to counselor every few weeks sucks. it is unfortunate that people have to go through such a terrible experience.
ReplyDeleteI could see how having an eating disorder could change your life drastically. It would be very hard on yourself and you're family. It's not easy to deal with and cure as many people think.
