Blog Post #4

       The purpose of my compare and contrast paper is to show the two subjects (bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa) by comparing them both side by side. I won’t show my bias or choose which one I think is worse; I will simply be comparing and contrasting aspects of the two eating disorders. I chose this topic because I have always been interested in helping people with eating disorders or mental illnesses. This is a subject I am very passionate about and I am eager to gain a deeper understanding of how two of the most widely known eating disorders are similar and different. Mostly, I am hoping to develop a new outlook on how bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa work and how they intertwine.

I commented on Britainy and Leonard's blogs.

  1. Very serious topic to choose to write about. I think that a lot of people have known or heard of someone that has had a eating disorder but it is not a subject that most people know much about.

  2. Eating disorders can be so destructive mentally and physically, and I think we all know what it feels like to be insecure. I've seen firsthand how damaging bulimia can be, and it's hard to watch someone you care about succumb to their demons. I hope this essay brings you some enlightenment into the dark world of eating disorders.

  3. i think this is a great topic to discuss and especially if it something that your passionate about. alot of people dont realize that these people with either disorders need help just like any other mental illness or addiction. glad you can share on this topic

  4. Interesting topic, Marissa. You will have plenty of evidence to support your claims and it is great to write about something you feel strongly about. Looking forward to your analysis of these two diseases.
