Introducing Anorexia Nervosa
A centre based in London for the treatment of eating disorders like Anorexia Another source of unbiased advice is the eating disorders Association.
http://www.priory-hospital.co.uk/htm/anorex.htm

Extractions: Anorexia Nervosa is an illness that mainly affects adolescent girls although it can occur both in boys or girls younger or older than this. The most common features are loss of weight coupled with a change in behaviour. The weight loss is slowly progressive and often starts with a perfectly normal weight reducing diet. It may only be after this has continued for several months that it seems a cause for worry, usually because by then the weight loss is extreme. To start with the girls are single minded in their determination to lose weight. Attempts to frustrate their efforts are generally met with anger or deceit or a combination of both. Confrontation, rational discussion, bullying or bribery will probably fail to cause more than a very brief change of eating behaviour. Continuing weight loss will lead to increasing concern by the family. A girl of average height will probably be unable to continue at school once her weight falls below around six stones. The personality changes that she may experience will be those of increasing seriousness and introversion. She will become less outgoing and less fun. She will usually begin to lose contact with her friends and may appear to lose interest in everything apart from food and academic work. She may show increased obsessional behaviour especially in the kitchen where she may become concerned with cleanliness, orderliness and precise timing of meals. She may well seem to wish to cook for the family and appear to encourage them to overeat. She will regress and appear to lose confidence. She may become less assertive, less argumentative and more dependant. At the same time her behaviour will increasingly control the lives of all around her.

Extractions: Subscribe to MindfulnessandMeditation Powered by health.groups.yahoo.com This web site is dedicated to the liver of life, the seeker of more, and to all of you who, like I, were wounded, have incurred many heart-wrenching losses, endured much pain and still search for a better, happier and more peaceful way. It is there for the finding. It must first be found from deep within yourself. Each one of us will identify a different, individual "happier" or more "peaceful". To look for something that we might think others have or "everyone else" has is to fool ourselves into suffering needlessly based upon cognitively distorted and unworthy comparisons. All you have to do, is follow your path on your journey in your life. For your way, is the right way for you.

http://www.dietitian.com/anorexia.html

Extractions: I'm so glad I found your site on the Internet! Eating disorders are hardly acknowledged in the Far East and I'm starting to get really worried about my best friend. My friend has been on this crazy diet for six months since we started freshman year at law school and she's lost 17 kilos (37.4 lbs.)! She used to be a nicely rounded at 60 kg (132 lbs.) and 166 cm (5 ft 5) but now she weighs 43.5 kilos (96 lbs.). Is this too thin? Her work always been excellent and she was always popular, but now she's really changed. Sure she has a boyfriend and has even been offered a modeling job, but I got real scared when she overdosed on laxatives today and called me sick and in a panic from a fast food restaurant . I was really shocked when I drove her home and put her to bed. She had bruises on her hips and ribs and she said sleeping on them was painful! When I tried to get her to drink some soup, she cried and cried and said it would make her fat! I've only ever seen her drink coffee in the last 5 months. She never eats with us in the cafeteria anymore and would always brightly excuse herself to work in the library. We're all envious of her wonderful figure now, but she's really thin and I'm worried. She said if I tell her parents, she'll kill me. She swears she'll stop dieting once she loses the last kilo, but that's what she said at 50 kilos! I don't want to lose her friendship, but I don't want her to lose even more! Could she die? Is this anorexia? Do write back soon or she'll be 5 ft 5 and less than 95 lbs!

Can eating disorders be treated? Printer-friendly version Email this article An eating disorder is an obsession with food and weight that harms a person's well-being. Although we all worry about our weight sometimes, people with an eating disorder go to extremes to keep from gaining weight. There are two main eating disorders: anorexia nervosa and bulimia. Return to top Source: National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders. We don't know exactly. Possible causes include feeling stressed out or upset about something in your life, or feeling like you need to be "in control." Society also puts a lot of pressure on people to be thin.

http://www.cbtcounselling.co.uk/

Extractions: Counsellor and Therapist, Anne-Purchase Walker, Norwich, Norfolk What Is Cognitive Behaviour Therapy? Cognitive Behaviour Therapy or CBT, originated in America in the early 1950's, through the pioneering work of two psychologists; Aaron Beck and Albert Ellis. Although both psychologists emphasis slightly different aspects of their work, Aaron Beck preferring to stress the importance of challenging negative thinking, and Albert Ellis (who calls his approach Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy), preferring to stress the importance of disputing the inflexible and irrational rules of living that we call ' musts ' or 'shoulds', both are in agreement that errors in our thinking are a major cause of human unhappiness. They also agree that examining our feelings, or emotions, and our behaviour, as well as our thinking, often with the help of a skilled Cognitive Behaviour Therapist or counsellor, when we have a problem, can be very helpful. In fact, such examination is the key to solving the problem! How Problems Happen Why is this? Because in any situation, it is our thinking, our interpretation of events, that usually starts our problem, and our feelings and behaviour follow. A little like a horse and cart. Where the horse goes the cart has to follow! It looks like this:
Eating Disorders: Anorexia And Bulimia
eating disorders are common in the United States between 5 and 10 million peoplehave them. For more information about anorexia and bulimia,
http://kidshealth.org/teen/food_fitness/problems/eat_disorder.html

Extractions: Hayley used to love going to the food court with her friends, but now just the thought of it fills her with dread. Besides, she doesn't really even have time to hang with her friends anymore - she needs more time for her running and cardio. It feels like every time she looks in the mirror she looks fat, although the scale says she's losing weight. Hayley doesn't feel like herself anymore. She's having a hard time concentrating in school and she's always so tired. Hayley has an eating disorder. Eating disorders are common in America - between 5 and 10 million people have them, and experts estimate that 1% of American teens have an eating disorder. That means if your class has 400 students, probably about four of them have this condition. Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa The two most common types of eating disorders are anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa , more commonly known as anorexia and bulimia. The two disorders can be difficult to distinguish from each other because they have similar characteristics: With both anorexia and bulimia, the person will have a distorted image of his or her body. That person will seem to be obsessed with what he or she eats. Both anorexia and bulimia tend to affect girls more than guys, but 10% of the people with eating disorders are guys. And, because we typically think of eating disorders as only affecting girls, they often go unrecognized in guys. Guys with eating disorders also tend to focus more on athletic appearance or success than on just looking thin.

I feel like a poser and a fake, I haven't had an "anorexic" weight for about 3 years now and my lowest weight in the past few months is only 107 ( I am 5'5"). I hate myself, i hate getting dressed, I hate looking in the mirror, i hate how weak I am and how hungry I get...I hate that this morning i weighed 112..IF anyone would like a support friend, or just someone to talk to, or someone who has any kind words..please comment 1 comment post comment mood drained So I'm back at school now trying to lose weight and be thin again like I was last year. My roomates are cool and my one roomate is ana too so we help eachother. But all the drinking we've been doing probably has made me gain...and I've been sticking my finger down my throat every night when I'm drunk just cause I feel bad about having drank so much. So I just need to detox and chill out and not drink as much...Plus we've all been eating so much chicken broth so we don't eat and its hurting my stomach so much today. Has that ever happened to anyone else? I'm kinda scared I'm sick or something! But besides that everything else is pretty good. I love my new apartment so I hope I can be happy balancing my eating issues with everything else!~Good luck to you all!
