Answer: Anorexia Nervosa

Explanation:

Anorexia Nervosa, also known simply as Anorexia, is an eating disorder characterized by abnormal weight loss and an immense fear of gaining weight. People who suffer from this disorder carry out a series of behaviors to avoid gaining weight, such as: not eating, exercising excessively and taking medications that contribute to faster weight loss. Vomiting is also another form used.

People with Anorexia Nervosa have a distorted image of their body. They look in a mirror and are overweight, which leads them to carry out all kinds of activities to lose weight. A person with this disorder may have depressive behaviors that improve when they see that they are losing the desired weight. This disorder has a high rate in women and the treatment involves a combination of psychological therapy and possible medical hospitalization to help the person gain weight.
