Anorexia (deriving from the Greek "α(ν)-" (a(n)-, a prefix that denotes absence) + "όρεξη (orexe) = appetite) is the decreased sensation of appetite. While the term in non-scientific publications is often used interchangeably with anorexia nervosa, many possible causes exist for a decreased appetite, some of which may be harmless, while others indicate a serious clinical condition, or pose a significant risk.

- Anorexia is an eating disorder. This is a condition where a person reduces their weght because they have lost their appetite to eat anything. They will become extremely thin like skeleton. The situation is opposite to "obesity". People always think that they are too fat and would like to be slimmer in order to look more beautiful although they are already very slim or thin! Anorexia can be fatal! No photo. hhhhhow do you expect us to carry on the discussion???
- From [[w:|]][[Category: derivations|Anorexia]] ἀνορεξία, from ἀν- (“‘without’”) + ὄρεξις (“‘appetite’”).
- Anorexia, or lack of appetite, is a symptom that is common to most illnesses, and is most often the result of infection, the result of the body shutting down the digestive tract to shunt energy to the immune system. If it persists without presenting with a fever, it usually points to a disorder of the digestive tract itself, although it can also be a symptom of certain types of cancers, neurological disorders, or autoimmune conditions.
- Fear of food. The characters become revolted by the thought of food and stop eating. When they do eat, they usually do so uncontrollably, excessively, and in private. After eating, they will often make themselves ill, out of a feeling of guilt. Anorexia leads to rapid weight loss and, although the characters may become unhealthily thin and wasted, they will still believe themselves to be grotesquely fat. In a game, such characters must pass a WP test after eating or be unable to keep the food down. The result is extremely unpleasant to watch and, needless to say, a breach of most forms of etiquette. The affliction also takes its toll on the character's health:
- Anorexia (also known as Nicole Richie Syndrome) is the culinary art of preparing, cooking and serving air. Those who practice anorexia are called "Anorexicans", as they live predominantly in Southern California. Anorexia is the most prestigious of the eating disorders (often described as the "Lo-Cal cream of the crop"); less meritorious candidates who do not fulfill all the eligibility criteria for anorexia typically receive the intermediate honorific, "Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified" (EDNOS), until such time as they are able to lose more weight and qualify as a full-fledged anorexic (see below).

After eating, they will often make themselves ill, out of a feeling of guilt. Anorexia leads to rapid weight loss and, although the characters may become unhealthily thin and wasted, they will still believe themselves to be grotesquely fat. In a game, such characters must pass a WP test after eating or be unable to keep the food down. The result is extremely unpleasant to watch and, needless to say, a breach of most forms of etiquette. The affliction also takes its toll on the character's health:
* After one month, the character loses one W point.
* After two months, the character loses a further W point and one point of S.
* After three months, the character loses one point of T. There are no further effects beyond this. Lost characteristic points are recovered within a month of the affliction being cured.

Anorexia was passed to humans from stick insects (Ctenomorpha chronus) in 1892, being first contracted by a pervert who worked at the San Diego Zoo. However, with the passing of time, anorexia became more and more fashionable. Anorexia is considered the courteous alternative to bulimia, which is much more messy. During a brief period following the stock-market crash of 1929, anorexia became compulsory in the USA and penniless investors began ingesting ramen noodles with flavored water as their only sustenance. Videos of the period show former corporate executives selling apples from pushcarts as the anti-eating trend caught on. By the time that World War II spurred America back to prosperity, these austere habits were ingrained and could not be shaken.
