HEALTH LOSS OF APPETITE ANOREXIA nervosa victims are emaciated to the point they look like skeletons. Anorexia is a loss of appetite, an aversion to food. The disorder is an uncommon and serious nervous condition, chiefly of young women. The physical symptoms of a person suffering from anorexia nervosa consist of great loss of weight, an aged look, pallor, intolerance to cold, low blood pressure and a slow pulse. There is profound emotional disorder characterized as a neurosis with compulsive, anxiety, depressive and often schizophrenic features. The condition affects adolescent girls and young women, less frequently women beyond 30, and very rarely men. The mental changes are like the emotional reactions of a spoiled child. Subterfuges are resorted to, indicative of loss of pride and morale. Unreasonable explanations are given to account for behavior and inability to eat. Anorexia nervosa may develop after dieting for overweight. The aversion to food is profound or. if hunger is experienced, satiety comes so quickly that eating provides far from enough to meet emergency requirements. There is a variety of disagreeable abdominal sensations, including nausea. Vomiting is common if food is forced, and it is offifen self-induced.
