The cause of eating disorder can start from any age even when you are a child maybe because you were abused as a child. Maybe something else caused you to have a problem with food. Here is a list of some possible causes for your unease with food.
Food can control how you feel, by either starving yourself, or over eating to ignore how you are feeling. Neither are good, because in the end you are making yourself ill, no one else..
A possible cause of an eating disorder could be from one of the following:
1) When you become a teenager you body changes shape.
2) Media pressure to look like someone else.
3) When you have been abused you may be feeling that your body has been taken over.
4) Bullying from people either at school or by your family.
5) Peer pressure from family and your friends.

My Story to You:
My family were always telling me how fat I was looking. No family should ever tell you how fat or thin you are because if there is a problem maybe they should be thinking you and me need help.
My Dad had also made me into his woman and so looking over-weight to him was bad too. He tried to make me grow up too quickly even giving me beer to drink when I was very young.
After the abuse came out in my family my grandma kept telling me how fat I was and kept telling me not to eat so much.
At my grandma's house I would eat a lot of her food which was wonderful. . I became thin and still there was a problem because my grandma yet again had a go at me for looking too thin
Side effects of Not Eating.
If your child or you are be being bullied because of your weight at school it might cause your child to stop eating. If you notice that your child is not eating or is trying to get out of eating then try and first find out why.
If you are not eating properly and you are starving yourself and you are aware that you might need some help you feel then find someone who you feel safe with and get help.
Why? because God and Jesus gave you a lovely body that should be cherished. If you let the bullies win by listening to them then you are harming your body and that is wrong.

My Story To You.
I was peer pressured by my family because when I saw them I over ate . And they used to tell me how fat I was and that is not nice.
I do not know if you feel the same way but food is a sensitive subject and you must not feel that you need to lose weight. I am over weight but dieting and starving is not right or healthy.
God and Jesus will help me to lose the weight if it is the right thing to do. I will not let any one bully or family pressure will tell me what to do. I have to be strong with this and with God and Jesus I am.
Make sure you are not alone and let God and Jesus be there by your side all the way. I need Him every second of every day.
To Help You.
If the doctors say that for health reason that you need to lose weight then that is different. I have to lose weight healthy to help my blood pressure and my bad back bad.
But I am not losing weight for any one else. It is your body and God made you the way you are. God. Loves you and He wants you to enjoy your body to the full.
Never let peer pressure family pressure or the abuser take control your body. It is your body and no one else's.
