“I am forever engaged in a silent battle in my head over whether or not to lift the fork to my mouth, and when I talk myself into doing so, I taste only shame. I have an eating disorder” (Morrow, 2010). For 10 million females and 1 million males in the United States alone, eating disorders, such as Anorexia Nervosa, are a daily struggle. The fifth edition of The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, also referred to as the DSM V (American Psychiatric Association, 2013), defines

and my Aunt Ana are ex-sisters-in-law that grew up in the same location. For me, it is overwhelming seeing how magnificent, and powerful these two women are in their own way. After both of them found themselves living in the same state again, Ana and Miguelina ended up having the same job; however, certain things changed, but what set them apart is that they are different when it comes to ambition, personalities, and careers. To begin with, Ana is the oldest child out of seven. The way Ana grew up with

It is no surprise that the United States has become infatuated with the idea of being fit, thin and healthy. This ideal has become so popular that it has become the new norm all over different media platforms including the ever growing, trendy, and highly accessible social media websites. Instagram, Twitter, Tumblr, and even the surprising Pinterest are just some of the few platforms that glorify the ideal that being thin is better and is the ideal to be wanted, loved, and successful in life.

Hello class, After reading the ANA code of ethics there are various aspects that can relate back to nursing informatics. However, the main sections I would like to discuss would be; provisions two, three, seven, eight and nine.

Invention of Ana: Final Paper Draft In The Invention of Ana by Mikkel Rosengaard, Rosengaard highlights how a story cannot be simply told without impacting those who hear; rather the power of a narrative is to bend time allowing the story to interlace itself with reality.
