I only know some about anorexia. About 10% of people who get anorexia, are males, while the other 90% are females. 13% to 20% of people who suffer from anorexia actually end up dying. Anorexia is when the person views themselves as fat, even when they may be extremely thin. Anorexia can normally begin with just dieting and reducing your calorie intake, but it can actually "grow," and that is when it becomes extremely hard to treat. People with anorexia normally tend to suffer from depression and have low or no self esteem. It is more common in areas such as California, or higher income places as thin is what is in basically. People who have parents who have high expectations and suffer from a lot of stress are more likely to get the disease as well. Anorexia also comes with a hardcore exercising routine, which is normally done late at night to avoid being caught by parents or guardians. If you have anorexia, you will vehemently deny suffering from it, and the mention of food or calories can cause a wave of depression to hit you.

Mainly woman suffer from eatting disorders.
Most under the age 19.
