Anorexia is such a sneaky thing, before you know it, you’re child has nearly disappeared. A really hard thing to overcome

This is a very serious issue and definitely needs to be addressed.
However I know of people who have been accused of the problem that have a genuine auto-immune disease, cannot eat some groups of foods without it making them extremely ill- sometimes admitted to hospital for IV fluids and pain relief, find it very difficult to gain weight even if they eat really large meals and suffer from intolerances of quite a few foods.

I think there should be more awareness of this disease which does take lives. I know there are websites out there that promote anorexia which is very disturbing.

It must be horrible to suffer of anorexia, or bulimia for what that matters.

Such a hard problem to help with – all advice and support necessary

Great tips, this like many other eating disorders are becoming so much more common.

This is so very important. Girls place so much emphasis on how they look that’s it’s easy to slip into the wrong mentality when it comes to food and nutrition. It’s important for parents to know what to say to their daughters so that girls grow up with a healthy relationship to food and their bodies.

Concerning, it certainly needs attention.
