Anorexia Nervosa
Anorexia nervosa involves the restriction of food, which leads to significantly low body weight relative to the individual’s age, sex, and development. This restriction is often secondary to an intense fear of gaining weight or becoming fat, despite the individual’s low body weight. Altered perception of self and an over-evaluation of one’s body weight and shape contribute to this disturbance of body size (National Eating Disorder Association).
Typical warning signs and symptoms of an individual with anorexia nervosa are divided into two different categories: Emotional/Behavioral and Physical. Some emotional and behavioral symptoms include dramatic weight loss, weight, calories, etc., frequent comments about feeling “fat,” eating a restricted range of foods, makes excuses to avoid mealtimes, and often does not eat in public. Physical changes may include dizziness, difficulty concentrating, feeling cold, sleep problems, thinning hair/hair loss, and muscle weakness etc.
The onset of the disorder typically begins with mild dietary restrictions such as eliminating carbs or specific fatty foods. As weight loss is achieved, the dietary restrictions progress to more severe, e.g., under 500 calories/day. While symptoms typically present in mid-teenage years, there is a noticeable trend of younger girls—as young as eight years old—who exhibit extreme dietary restrictive behaviors. While males are not immune to this disorder, the number of females diagnosed each year is overwhelmingly larger than that of males.
