ALL THE BEST FOR EMATH PAPER 1 TMRW! :D
jiayous ok. rmbr ur entry proof, construction set, long rule, curve rule blah everything you need for tmrw's paper. stay healthy! :D
ya anws. i was doing english homework, and wiki-ed abt anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa.
so ya im sure everyone knows wad they are. basically, anorexia is an eating disorder caused by an obsession to be very very skinny and so that person keep starving him/herself, and eventually losing control and the body is unable to take in any food. bulimia is sth similar, just that instead of starving, that person will eat and vomit everything out by sticking his/her fingers inside his/her throat to force it out, and eventually this cycle became like auto or sth so the body keeps doing so.
yuck right? but ppl are doing it. and my research mainly focused on the causes of it. 3 in 100 girls suffer from anorexia, and the number is increasing. more and more guys are suffering from it too.
after watching the video called "dying to be thin" that elaine chng showed us last friday, and reading on the net, i think here are some causes of it, even though there are no confirmed causes of these eating disorders.
Firstly, there's the emotional factor. it may be a way teenagers use to escape from the stress they cant face in life, for example, divorce of parents, death of a love one, etcetc. actually im not sure why but according to some websites, it is.
Secondly, there is the physical factor, for example due to professional reasons. some examples are dancers, actress etcetc. they have the pressure to be very very thin, as it is what is required of in their careers, and many many dancers especially suffer from anorexia. notice that dancers are usually super skinny?
Lastly, there's the social factor. social factor as in frens, boyfriends etcetc. like honestly guys, ask yourself. how many girls have u called fat in their face bfr? -.-
ok i know i crapped alot, but i just want to say this. pls be more considerate of others' feelings ok. like especially girls, dont call us fat srsly. -.-
ok nvm.
jiayous for paper tmrw honey! :D
