Anorexia nervosa is a diagnosis that is applied to a humanoid eating disorder which leads to low body weight and affects a person's view of their own bodies. In 2269, Leonard McCoy noticed that Spock One had stopped eating, but attributed it to an emotional upset brought on by the stress of suddenly having an identical twin. (TOS novel: Spock Must Die!)

- Anorexia nervosa is an eating disorder that results in very low body mass. Body mass becomes so low that the body can no longer maintain a proper balance of blood and electrolyte chemistry, which often results in heart disease and cardiac arrest, along with other complications such as malnutrition. The disorder is almost always seen in women, although it is becoming more common in men. Nervosa patients perceive themselves as obese even as their weight continues to fall.

| abstract
| - Anorexia nervosa is an eating disorder that results in very low body mass. Body mass becomes so low that the body can no longer maintain a proper balance of blood and electrolyte chemistry, which often results in heart disease and cardiac arrest, along with other complications such as malnutrition. The disorder is almost always seen in women, although it is becoming more common in men. Nervosa patients perceive themselves as obese even as their weight continues to fall. Nervosa is extremely difficult to treat, even in hospital settings. In addition to psychiatric involvement, the patient will often require a high-calorie diet which they inevitably resist. The term anorexia is also used to describe eating disorders related to stomach or intestinal pain that result from eating. However, these types of disorder will disappear when the underlying cause is treated. In Broken, Hal Connor represented a rare case where the disorder was seen in a male. See also Bulimia, another eating disorder characterized by binge and purge eating.
- Anorexia nervosa is a psychiatric illness that describes really skinny people who think that they are fat. Many people are jealous of anorexics because they have gold medals when it comes to losing weight. If only all of the obese Americans would learn a trick or two from them such as hate because if you hate yourself enough, you will want to kill yourself from a prolonged period of starvation, a slow and painful death. Anorexics use many techniques to lose weight including but not limited to “voluntary” starvation, purging, excessive exercise, diet pills, or diuretic drugs (which do not work, but will give you a hell of an electrolyte imbalance). Anorexics are typically very bright and intelligent people who are good at trickery (aka manipulation). This includes the trickery of other people and their own bodies. Anorexia is not a life-threatening disease even though it puts a serious strain on most if not all of the body’s organs and has the highest mortality rate of any psychiatric condition (merely a coincidence). The slow heart rate (sometimes less than 30 beats/min), cardiac rhythm disturbances, electrolyte imbalances, etc are also a coincidence and not a result of anorexia. If you know an anorexic person or see one on street, be nice to them because hungry people are mean and may attack you if you snap at them.
