Anorexia Nervosa

Anorexia Nervosa

Even Men suffer from Anorexia Nervosa, it is however commoner in young females. *ANOREXIA NERVOSA* People with anorexia nervosa don't eat enough, usually because they feel that their problems are caused by what they look like. Anorexia Nervosa is an eating disorder characterised by restrictive eating and an intense fear of gaining weight. While anorexia is often recognised physically through excessive weight loss, it is a serious mental health problem. Someone with anorexia often has an intense fear of gaining weight and for many people they judge themselves and their worth based on their weight. Anyone can be affected by anorexia. While statistics show that anorexia is more commonly reported by young females, anorexia is increasingly being reported by men and boys, women over the age of 40, and in children as young as seven.
