In this era, many people are seeking specific beauty according to standards imposed by societies and social media. In their relentless pursuit of achieving this image, some may find themselves in a spiral of eating disorder syndromes. Let’s learn the story of a girl who suffered greatly from anorexia syndrome.
When we talk regarding anorexia syndrome, we may first think that it is just a phase that some young women go through, but the truth is further from that. Niamh O’Connor’s story may be living proof of this. She began suffering with anorexia at a young age, believing that maintaining a certain weight would give her happiness and appreciation.
Within seven years, her body had suffered. Her heart and kidney functions were damaged, her bones became thin and brittle, and a bone scan even showed that her spine resembled that of a woman in her eighties. And these are not all the effects. Niamh also suffered side effects on the immune and digestive systems, and her skin, hair and teeth began to deteriorate.
As if this suffering was not enough, Niamh faced fatigue syndrome and chronic muscle pain, as a result of the medications she was taking to treat anorexia. Niamh expressed her suffering, not to arouse pity, but to provide a real warning to her generation. A warning once morest the dangers of obsession with obtaining a certain body, at the expense of health and well-being.
