Anorexia Nervosa is just restricting calorie intake to a crazy amount until you lose so much body weight.
Bulimia Nervosa is eating like a madman, then throwing it all up. Also known as binging and purging.
It is just a shorter version of the full name. Anorexia is short for Anorexia Nervosa. Therefore, Anorexia Nervosa is commonly referred to as Anorexia. (As is Bulimia. Bulimia is short for Bulimia Nervosa.)
I don't think it would be all that different. It doesn't matter where you come from. Anorexia doesn't discriminate.
There is none.
Their is not a difference between the two things. Anorexia Nervosa is the name of the actual eating disorder. The other eating disorder is Bulimia Nervosa, and it is different from Anorexia Nervosa.
There is no difference between an anorexic girl and boy. Anorexia is more commonly associated with girls. However, it is increasingly becoming common for boys to suffer it as well.

Hi there! The prefix "pro" means you are in favor of something (in this case, either "mia" or "ana"). "Mia" is short for bulimia, and "ana" is short for anorexia. Both bulimia and anorexia are serious eating disorders- Generally, bulimia is characterized with extreme over-eating (binge) and then purge via laxatives or vomitting. Anorexia on the other hand is characterized with extreme under-eating and the thought that they are fat when actually, are emaciated. Basically, the difference between pro-mia and pro-ana is that someone who is pro-mia is a supporter of bulimia and the latter is a supporter of anorexia.
Not really. Anorexia and bulimia are very different eating disorders.
