Subject: Eating Disorders

I think that talking about eating disorders is very important in this class. It is a major issue among youth today due to the media and the criticism of others. I think that it is important for us to discuss the various causes of these disorders, the definitions, and the effects. This will help prevent us from doing or saying something that could cause someone to start starving themselves or purging, it could help us inform and educate others, and it can enable us to reach out and help someone who has already become anorexic or bulimic. I have never personally known anyone with this disorder, but I have seen many on TV and in movies and it is very depressing that someone would hurt themselves that way just to please others.
