    Eating disorder!
    Hey you! Okay I am a freshman in college and I have this 10 page research paper due in a few days. Of course, I procrastinated and did not exactly start until today, TWELVE HOURS AGO and still have nothing. We have written 5 other papers this semester that have had to do with our research topics. My research topic is eating disorders and I have no idea what to do. I was once a victim of anorexia and bulimia and I wanted to write about them to help people who suffered through what I did or at least to inform the world. Anyway, I wanted it to be easy and I figured it would be since I knew a lot about them. HOWEVER, the research paper has to be a PERSUASIVE ARGUMENT as well as a research paper and it has to be on a controversial issue. So I was wondering if anyone could help me think of a SPECIFIC topic surrounding eating disorders that would be easy for me to find information on and stuff! Please let me know if you have any ideas! The influence of media on eating disorders won't work I already asked my teacher. Thanks you!

    I would think this would be relatively easy for you since you were a victim of bulimia and anorexia. I have found that most people who are anorexic are anti-social and have a hard time making friends and keeping relationships with other people. Why don't you pursue that avenue?

    This idea may be too late. Denial is the one common factor, that and depression.
