 Hii! Welcome back to month 16 of #faltufriday!  Being an avid T.V. watcher I have always loved consuming content in the form of movies and T.V. Shows.  Couple of months ago, I had written on recommendations of my favourite T.V. shows which recently gave me rise to an idea; why not share my favourite movies too?  So, in that case, here are my "most loved" and go-to movies on Mental Health which I can watch innumerable number of times and never get bored of :) Number One: Charlie, a 15-year-old introvert, enters high school and is nervous about his new life. When he befriends his seniors, he learns to cope with his friend's demise and his tumultuous past. The reason I like this film is because it looks at the reality of mental illness among high school students. This film suggests the grim reality of living through a mental illness and having to deal with people who do not understand or care to understand. This film “normalizes” what Charlie is going through and show...

 Hey everyone! Welcome back <3 In last week's post we discussed about a type of eating disorder known as Anorexia. Aaj ke post mey we are going to talk about another type known as Bulimia. This is a kind of eating disorder often glorified in several number of TV shows.  To start off, Bulimia is a serious psychological eating disorder in which one has episodes of consuming a large quantity of food in one sitting aka binge eating. During these binges, one loses their sense of control over their eating. It’s binge eating followed by purging. Purging can occur through forced vomiting, excessive exercise, or by taking laxatives or diuretics, or any other such methods. People with bulimia purge follow a binge-and-removal cycle. Purge behaviours also include other strict methods to maintain weight like fasting, exercise, or extreme dieting. Though their isn't just one particular root cause, researchers believe this eating disorder may begin with dissatisfaction with one's body ...

 Hey everyone! Welcome back <3 Today's post is based on a topic which I came across from a real life incident. A lot of us may have also heard about it on the TV show , " Never have I ever" too. Before we get started, this post will be solely based on what exactly Anorexia is rather than tips to "overcome" it, because its not that "easy" after all.  So to start off, In layman's terms,  Anorexia is an eating disorder that leads to markedly reduced appetite or a complete aversion to food. People with anorexia constantly try to keep their weight as low as they can by not eating enough food.   The condition, in technical terms called anorexia nervosa, is going well past the boundaries of healthy dieting. Besides excessive dieting, someone with anorexia may additionally do great amounts of exercise, way past the recommended levels. This may also lead them to  being extraordinarily weak and starved. A person with anorexia, however, has a distorted b...

Eating Disorders have often been misperceived which has led to multiple repercussions.  They have been ignored, as well as, misdiagnosed . However, a factor common to both is that it has become a "trend" to have some sort of a disorder-now in the limelight- Eating Disorders . Not only is this wrong, but the reason people endorse in this is because they are unaware of what it actually is. This fad is not good and has to be brought to a full stop; No Mental Disorders are something to be joked about. That being said, to prevent further misconception about this topic, let's clear out What exactly is an "Eating Disorder"? In simple words, it is a serious mental illness, characterised by eating, exercise and body weight or shape becoming an unhealthy lifestyle of someone's life.  One tries using food to manage their feelings. They tend to have an baleful relationship with food. This may be eating too much or too little food. Maybe eating a lot of food in one sitti...
