Additional Information about Body Dysmorphia

I felt this video, “My Story (Anorexia)”, was important to share because it shows a girls struggle with anorexia. There are many ways that anorexia can affect an individual’s life. A horrible aspect of anorexic is when the individual shows signs of body dysmorphia. Body dysmorphia is when the individual sees the body completely different than how it actually is. This contributes to their eating disorder because they will never be satisfied by how they look to the public. If you or a loved one is showing signs of an eating disorder, there are anorexia treatment facilities that can help. Anorexia treatment is the best way to overcome an eating disorder because the center will hopefully teach the individual necessary life and coping skills. Having an eating disorder is something that will plague an individual for the rest of their life. That is why learning coping skills is so necessary because they will inevitably be faced with stress and strife in life outside the rehab center.
