9 Warning Signs of Anorexia
6. Obsession with checking weight
If you find someone getting on the scale over and over again and feeling constantly anxious about gaining weight, he or she might be in danger of anorexia.
7. A distorted body image
People with anorexia are perpetually dissatisfied with their weight and their body. Even if they are very thin, they may still see themselves as fat or overweight.
8. A change in menstrual pattern
In case of young women or pubescent girls, it is a warning sign of anorexia if they miss their periods three or more times in a row.
9. Behavioral changes
Those who are anorexic slowly become more isolated and withdrawn. They spend less time with their family and friends, and start being more and more secretive.
