FInal Response of Wasted

This book went way beyond the death of my Market Place of Ideas project. I spoke a lot about the issue of control and how that may cause eating disorders. I also talked about how it can be caused by social pressures. I also discussed how common eating disorders are in athletes who feel that the dimensions of their body, their weight, and appearance are main factors in their performance or will give them their competitive edge. In this book I learned that it could be anything in the world. It is a mystery what sets it off exactly. It could be any of those things, but those aren't the only reasons for it. Of course, environment and family background play a large roll as well. Sometimes it is just a part of someone that could have been set off by default. Eating disorders are not only a prominent issue, but they are truly an addiction. Many people today are suffering from them and even dying from them. Many times they are accompanied by other disorders or drug usages which make them even more dangerous. Eating disorders may not be brushed off as insecurities or immaturity. It is an issue much deeper that requires extensive therapy in order to heal.
