the story of the movie:
To the Bone is a comedy-drama movie that tells the story of 20-year-old teenage girl Eileen suffers from anorexia nervosa and enters the clinic for treatment. Eileen comes from a broken family, a gay mother and a father who is always absent from his job And she has a sister and a stepmother who cares about her. Eileen is a pessimistic and melancholy personality who always looks for shortcomings in everything. She suffers from self-flagellation and has a guilt complex that snatches her from the inside.

Eileen takes off her clothes, the bones of her stomach, rib cage, and abdomen stretched inward, due to their weakness, and the flesh is almost completely disappeared from her body. It is very lean. "I don't understand, why don't you simply eat?" Her sister says. Her boyfriend urges her to eat, "Eat and swallow, and the world will not collapse, I swear." And her stepmother takes her photo, then shows her her picture on the phone and asks her: "Is this how you want to be?" She answers: Yes. Do you think this is beautiful? She answered: Yes, but the obsession with thinness did not leave her. Eileen exercises beyond her energy until she reaches the stage of stress, and plays a game with her friend while they eat dinner, so she begins by determining the amount of calories in each category, and she walks quickly, goes down and climb the stairs many times She goes up to the mountain at night to burn calories, then the body starts burning muscles and muscle tissues after burning fat, then menstruation stops at that time, and despite that, she says repeatedly: "I control the situation, no harm will happen", until this disease threatens her life and nears death.

Thoughts struck me:
There are many disorders that occur in the teens or young adults, and anorexia and bulimia are probably the best known, but not the only one.

The problem here is not overweight or obesity, although I will address them, the problem is that there is no problem and that you continue to create speculations, images and things that others do not see in you, you check them satisfactorily, and bring yourself a chain of anxiety, tension, and low self-confidence and In the end, you will reach the point of depression!

We know how the media affects us so greatly that we are so convinced that beauty and fame are linked to thinness, to liken models and celebrities in terms of your height and weight and the problem is that the media does not reflect the reality of people, we are different and this is what distinguishes us, I should not be in a picture Stereotypes in line with society and changing beauty standards from time to time!

Surprisingly, there are a large number of celebrities who have admitted to suffering from anorexia or bulimia such as: Princess Diana, Allegra Versace, Mary-Kate Olsen, Victoria Beckham, Lady Gaga or Elton John.

If this indicates, then it indicates that the problem is that you could not love yourself! Ace, beauty and thinness will not prevent you from these disturbances and always touching flaws and inconsequential idealism.

Are there suggestions for young men and women to learn how to love themselves?

Have you had similar experiences with losing or gaining weight?
