My first assignment at college is about eating disorders. Whilst I do have access to a world of information via the internet, books and TV, I would like to see what you lovely people have to say on the matter. If you have personal experience or know people with eating disorders (Anorexia, Bulimia, Binge Eating, Obesity) I would love to hear what you have to say.

Im not asking for people to give me the information for my work (I have that), I would just like to hear what you have to say on the matter, just out of interest.

This is what I have to do -
Define and explain the symptoms of eating disorders.
Discuss the idea that eating disorders are a female illness.
Discuss the reasons for the increase in males with eating disorders.

Also, who do you think is to blame for eating disorders, is it a mental illness or do you blame the media (size 0)

I just think it is interesting to hear strong and often contrasting opinions on these matters, and I would love to hear yours.

Told you I was a geek !!!

Thanks
