Usually bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa stem from a long build up of "not good enough" feelings. They're both linked to depression and self-hate, so in a sense, yes. Others may have a great influence on whether or not someone may turn to anorexia and bulimia for release.
Some people just blame the media for anorexia in teenagers these days, but I believe with the struggles of a teenager in itself, the media is sort of just a trigger.
What else can I help you with?
Is there a difference between Bulimia and Anorexia if so what and explain?
anorexia nervosa is when the person starves themselves because they feel that they are fat because of who they see in the mirror. they don't see themselves how others see them bulimia nervosa can have some of the same symptoms, but instead of starving themselves, they binge (eat large amounts of food at one time) then purge (force themselves to throw it up)
Which is more deadly anorexia or bulimia?
Both are deadly, it depends on how long a person suffers. A person with anorexia is in a state of self-starvation and will die due to the effects of starvation. A person with bulimia binges and purges, purging is deadly, people sometimes die on their first purge, others do it for years without dying. It's a gamble. Personally I would say bulimia, though I am NOT dismissing the dangers of anorexia, they both lead to death, but from my experience, bulimia is more dangerous.

Why does bulimia take place in abuse?
Bulimia nervosa is a mental illness which consists of binging and purging; but the thoughts behind the illness variate. Some people can not starve for certain reasons and result in eating and purging. This is actually anorexia purge sub type. Some people starve then binge and purge, this is called anorexia binge-purge sub type. Some people keep binging and purging, that is bulimia. Sometimes it is to loose weight, but it is often the way that a victim of bulimia will stuff down all their emotions and then purge them up to "get rid" of them. It can also be the case that a person expresses themselves through binging but fears weight gain and purges. But abuse brings many dark emotions as it is an in-humane activity that is not in our nature. Each person has a safety mechanism that they result to in dire need, and for some it is the binging. For others the purging can become an addiction. To conclude, it really depends on the individual but if you feel that may be you then get help.

What are two cause of Anorexia?
Anorexia is often cause by low self-esteem. This can happen as a result of teasing from others, rude comments, and depression. Anorexia can also (though some dispute this) be caused by the media. Most models are tall and very thin. Magazines show mostly re-touched "perfect" images of models. Girls often think, through the meida, that "thin is good", because there is a large lack of positive ideas about healthy, normal looking people and weights. Trying to be so thin can easily cause anorexia.
