Eating & Body Image Disorders
Body Image
Also called the disease of "imagined ugliness," body dysmorphic disorder drives some people to plastic surgeons over and over again. Never satisfied, this illness makes some of the most beautiful people shut-ins. A similar disorder, olfactory reference syndrome, makes people think they offend others with an imaginary foul odor. Both of these disorders can result in social phobia.
Bad Relationship with Food
Dying to eat, people with anorexia nervosa starve themselves out of an extreme fear of becoming overweight. Others with the same fear purge by vomiting to prevent weight gain, with a disorder called bulimia nervosa. While most of these are women, many males suffer from muscle dysmorphia, a disorder where the person just can't get large enough. Any of these disorders can lead to exercise addiction. People who binge on food without purging are compulsive overeaters, also called binge eating disorder.
