What does too much T.V do to you?

Too much tv can influence a person and possibly even cause eating diorders, like anorexia. It is heavily believed that tv shows personify images of how people "should" be. This is similarly thought to be done throguh fashion with models. Specifically on tv, commercials often feature thin models, there are constantly weight loss ads on, mdia portrays "thin is better", ect. This - especially in high amounts - can influence a person to think that they weight too much, causing them to possibly become anorexic or develop an eating disorder.


What are the social factors that you need to take into consideration when you talk about anorexia nervosa?

Anorexia can be considered a very "social" disease / disorder. Much of the source reasons of eating disorders develop from outside pressures, such as peers and media. Society tends to view women particularly with a "thin is good" ideal, and this can lead to eating diorders very easily, especially in young and teenage girls. Also, millions of people are affected by anorexia and other eating disorders. When talking, it is important to realise that someone may know an individual affected, and it can be a touchy subject for them. Many anorexics are also very self-conscious and secretive, so it is important to approach them and talk with them properly, and aviod doing or saying anything that may be triggering to them.
