The document discusses eating disorders, their prevalence among young adults, and potential contributing societal factors. It notes that anorexia is the third most common chronic illness in adolescents and eating disorders have the highest death rate of any mental illness. Advertisements and media that primarily feature thin individuals are hypothesized to influence body image and comparison. Treatment involves individualized psychotherapy, medical monitoring, and addressing psychological and nutritional needs.

Welcome to the Program Your Destiny course. In this course, we will be learning the technology of personal transformation, neuroassociative conditioning (NAC) as pioneered by Tony Robbins. NAC is used to deprogram negative neuroassociations that are causing approach avoidance and instead reprogram yourself with positive neuroassociations that lead to being approach automatic. In doing so, you change your destiny, moving towards unlocking the hypersocial self within, the true self free from fear and operating from a place of personal power and love.
https://bit.ly/BabeSideDoll4u Babeside is a company that specializes in creating handcrafted reborn dolls. These dolls are designed to be incredibly lifelike, with realistic skin tones and hair, and they have become increasingly popular among collectors and those who use them for therapeutic purposes. At Babeside, we believe that our reborn dolls can provide comfort and healing to anyone who needs it.
The Healing Power of Babeside's Handcrafted Creations
Our reborn dolls are more than just beautiful pieces of art - they can also help alleviate stress, anxiety, depression, and other mental health conditions. Studies have shown that holding or cuddling a soft object like a stuffed animal or a reborn doll can release oxytocin, which is often referred to as the "love hormone." This hormone helps us feel calm and relaxed, reducing feelings of stress and anxiety.
In addition to their physical benefits, reborn dolls can also offer emotional support. For many people, having something to care for and nurture can bring a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Reborn dolls can also serve as a reminder of happy memories or loved ones who have passed away.

“Eating disorders are like a gun that’s formed by genetics, loaded by a culture and family ideals, and triggered by unbearable distress,” Author Aimee Liu states this. Body image distortion and different consumption behaviors has become more prevalent in today’s society. When you can’t seem to be in control of anything going on in your life, food may come to mind. We are able to control what we put into our mouths. For people who have an eating disorder, it gives them a sense of control and like they must be doing something correctly.
Whether it be not consuming enough or consuming too much, both of these can be considered eating disorders. Mary Pipher, a psychologist and author once said, “In all the years I’ve been a therapist, I’ve yet to meet one girl who likes her body.” Anorexia consists of thinking about food and your body constantly and refusing to maintain a healthy weight. Bulimia is the act of consuming a large amount of food in one sitting, but then purging right afterwards. Binge eating can be compared to bulimia, but when these individuals binge eat, they do not partake in purging. Sadly, anorexia is a common chronic illness regarding teenagers, and it is to be taken seriously. Body image issues can be extremely common among college students, but I took a look at a study to see whether or not nutrition students are at a higher risk for eating disorders. To my surprise, they are at no higher risk than the general population. (The photo used in this slide is screenshotted.)
This chart states the number of Americans who have an eating disorder. Anorexia is not as common as binge eating and bulimia; about 1% of women and .3% of women suffer from anorexia. Binge eating may not be thought of as a mental disorder, but when an individual eats a large amount of food in one sitting, and feels a sense of euphoria afterward, leading to depression, he or she fits the criteria. A person may be unable to tell if an individual has bulimia because he or she is usually a normal weight or overweight. As the chart shows, eating disorders are quite common in America.
When advertisements, TV shows, and magazines are only seen with beautiful and skinny people that may be our motivation to look exactly like that person. This can create the image for “average joes” (95% of the population) that are not easy to obtain. As the generation have passed, models are becoming thinner as people living and thinner. Nowadays, models weigh about 15% less than they did 25 years ago. In America, where see an average 3,000 visual ads in one day, it can be easy to compare our lives to that person on the commercial.
This is the cycle of that people who have eating disorders partake in. The “quest for thinness” suggests that the person has lost control in his or her life and/or is a perfectionist on the pursuit of the perfect body. Obstructive dieting means that it could go in either direction; one person may binge eat while the other person may restrict his or her eating. Hunger pangs are going to be there, but the need to finally take control is there. Bingeing and purging may occur for those with bulimia and binge eating. The feeling of shame and being embarrassed can not only hinder the person’s life, but cause problems in relationships as well.
When it comes to treatment of eating disorders, individualized care is a must. No one case is the exact same. Different therapists, counselors, dieticians, and support groups may be needed. Psychotherapy such as DBT (dialectical behavior therapy) is a cognitive-behavioral therapy that points out the client’s capabilities and willingness to change. This has been shown to be effective. Some individuals may need hospitalized care if there are life-threatening conditions related to the eating disorder. Medications can also assist in helping combat the eating disorder.
Binge Eating Disorder has been recently to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM). This is very beneficial because most major insurance companies are now able to cover treatment since it is now part of the DSM. This DSM diagnosis may now lead to healthcare professionals researching more about this disorder, so that the individual is able to receive the best care possible. Also, people are more likely to receive treatment since they now know the cost will be covered. (The photo in this slide is from a pdf).
When we compare our lives to other people, things get messy fast. Rather than comparing what you have or your body to a celebrity or a friend, it may be that that person is confident in who they are and they take care of their bodies. Instead of ignoring the magazine covers or fit people on TV, it is important to know that they probably take care of their body and it was a hard journey to get where they are today.
