Anorexia nervosa is an eating disorder, the people who have it doesn't want to eat because they have fear of gaining weight, they also can have a distorted body self-perception. Anorexia nervosa had some characteristics, for example : low body weight, bad eating habits, obsesion with thinnes and the exaggerated fear of gaining weight.
It has different signs and symptoms:

- Cook for others, but not eat
- Obsessing diet

- Excesive exercise
- Hypothermia

There are a lot of possibles causes, some are biological and some are caused by the society.
I'm very indignant with the present publicity, because they always exalt the idea that thinnes is beauty and that's not true.
My friend became anorexic because of her boyfriend, one day they split up. Next week he strarted to insult her, saying that she was fat, one girl friend of the ex-boyfriend send a message in Facebook to my friend saying : " fat cow". My friend started with a diet and exercise. Then she didn't want to eat, she had problems.
Nowadays my friend is in treatment. I hope that she will have power for leave anorexia.
