MisunderstandingsAnorexia nervosa is not an out
of control diet attempt, but a severe hard to
treat psychiatric illness with longlasting
consequences. The beauty ideal plays a minor
rol in causing and maintaining anorexia nervosa.
People with anorexia nervosa go on losing weight
even if they do not become more beautiful
according to the cultural values. The amount of
people with anorexia nervosa has almost not risen
in the past 50 years. The stories of
'anorexia-epidemics' under American students,
English and Argentine highschool students,
fotomodels and Hollywood-actresses are not based
on facts. The idea that anorexia nervosa is a
typical Western illness, is based on nothing. The
prevalence of anorexia nervosa is the same
worldwide. The fact that anorexia is more seen in
people from a higher social economical class is
not supported by sufficient evidence.
