      The Face of Anorexia - Harry Jay

      Introduction

      This is not an easy subject to understand and discuss.  It is painful to understand and witness this disease as it affects your loved ones and friends.

      All diseases and disorders are horrific and anorexia or as the medical community calls it Anorexia Nervosa is no exception. The cover photo is enough to make you pause and hold back a few emotions.

      My name is Dr. Harry Jay and I’ve been a behavioral scientist for over 32-years. Of the hundreds of anorexia patients I have counseled, none of them have been easy. The problem is not going to go away without some serious consideration as to how the problem begins. I will be discussing all aspects of anorexia throughout this book.

      Statistics show that anorexia confronts both males and females but over 95% of all anorexia patients are teenage girls. Today, teenage peer pressure is at an all time high. As I write this introduction, the evening news is reporting that teenage girls are now going online and asking strangers to critique their looks. If this isn’t a massive cultivation of anorexia seeds then I don’t know what is!

      Being concerned with one’s looks is not new and vanity has been with us from the dawn of mankind. What is new is the type of society that we now live in that is dedicated to good looks, beauty, bodybuilding, and fitness and exercise to a point where it becomes problematic.

      THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING FIT AND TRIM AND LOOKING GOOD UNLESS IT BECOMES AN OBSESSION AND BECOMES PROBLEMATIC!

      In today’s society of consumerism and entertainment, we constantly want more and we constantly want to be entertained and we constantly want it NOW! Gain of any type comes by sacrifice but today’s young people are growing up in single parent homes and if they
