Anorexia affects people of all ages and backgrounds, women AND men. It has often been thought of as a ‘woman’s’ problem but in fact around 10% of cases in treatment are men, and many more probably struggle in silence, or fail to get diagnosed. Anorexia usually starts in the early teenage years, but cases in younger children are increasingly common. Anorexia is a very serious problem, partly because of the physical effects of being too thin, but also because it brings with it a terrible sense of despair and loss of hope. People suffering often feel totally trapped, and fear that they will never be able to live a normal life. This isn’t actually true – with the right help and treatment the majority will recover, though it may be a long journey to full recovery.
