Topics

Eating disorders are serious mental health conditions that are characterized by constant disturbances in eating behaviors, and connections with food, weight, and body image. These disorders involve extreme emotions and non healthy behaviors that go beyond normal concerns about food or weight, leading to significant physical, emotional, and social harm.

What are eating disorders?

Fatphobic comments/insults, or even physical abuse can result in excessive eating or exercise.

Bullying

Seeing influencers in social media with stereotypical "perfect" body may lead people to start being insecure about their body.

Influencers

Experiences of trauma, abuse, or significant life stressors can trigger unhealthy eating behaviors.

Traumas

Factors that contribute to it

A tendency towards perfectionism can lead to rigid standards about body shape and weight, increasing the risk of restrictive/excessive eating.

Perfectionism

The media plays a powerful role in shaping public vision of eating disorders, that influences how these conditions are understood. Media coverage can raise awareness, and can also perpetuate harmful stereotypes. This topic explores how eating disorders are represented in various media forms, and their impact on audiences.
