There is so much more to this than you know There is more to anorexia than starving There is more to depression than sadness There is more to anxiety than stress There is more to bulimia than purging There is more to bipolar disorder than mood changes There is more to a mental illness than one thing A mental illness effects every part of someones life As well as everyone you love It's an illness and it hurts But a mental illness can never be cured But you can help your loved one with it But first you have to know what you're helping Anorexia is a disorder characterized by a desire to lose weight by refusing to eat Depression is a disorder characterized by persistently depressed mood or loss of interest in activities Anxiety is a disorder characterized by feelings of worry, anxiety, or fear Bulimia is a disorder marked by binging, followed by methods to avoid weight gain Bipolar disorder is associated with episodes of mood swings ranging from depressive lows to manic highs You need to know about this because people have this And more awareness needs to be made Because mental illness effects everyone
