I recently got an email from Emily Z, a 14-year old who is aspiring to be a mental health professional. She alerted me to an informative webpage on eating disorders.

Emily’s enthusiasm inspired me to look more into the topic, especially in how it relates to teenagers since they are more susceptible to develop them. I have however, also included some information about how eating disorders affect adults.
