Catching an Eating Disorder
I know what you’re thinking, “There’s no way to catch an eating disorder.” But the truth is that if you hangout with someone who has an eating disorder they can give it to you. If they don’t eat certain foods it will make you feel bad about eating it in front of them, if they only eat a certain amount of calories you could start too. You may still think it can’t happen to you but here’s how your judgment could be clouded: the thought of being judged. Not wanting to be thought badly of by your peers can lead to being just like them. Just remember: being yourself is all that matters and if someone doesn’t like it, well then it’s their fault for not seeing your beauty.

Very good points! I never thought about how an eating disorder could be contagious, but it can.
I never thought you could catch a eating disorder.. I've always know I ate differently in front of people, but I didn't know it was something that could effect me. I'll have to keep that in mind :)
Keep up the good work!!
