Is there a typical sufferer of Anorexia or Bulimia ?

0

While anorexics are often members of the middle-class, or affluent, society, recent findings show sufferers of anorexia and bulimia come from all backgrounds and many different styles (and sizes) of families. There is a tendency for anorexics to set unreasonably high goals and to aim for perfection in all they do. Generally speaking, bulimia is likely to begin after the late teens, while anorexia more often starts during adolescence. The incidence of anorexia or bulimia in males is about 5% of all cases, with onset of the disorders generally mid-teens to early twenties. Back to list of questions.
