YFG Highlight Dangerous ‘SIZE 0’ Fad
ONE IN FIVE SUFFERERS DIE FROM EATING DISORDERS. URGENT ACTION NEEDED

Thursday, 6 September 2007

Young Fine Gael (YFG) today (Thursday) launched an info/ policy document to highlight the lack of support available to people experiencing eating disorders, especially those who are not in a financial position to seek help.

Eating disorders are serious psychiatric illnesses with a 20% mortality rate. YFG Councillor, Anne Marie Martin, who has suffered from an eating disorder, is calling on the Government to introduce a dedicated service that young women and men can depend on to offer them expert help in this area.

“With students returning to school this week we believe it’s an opportunity to start a debate on Irish societies attitude to the ‘size 0’ fad, which affects many young people. One of the fundamental changes needed in our health system and society is to break down the stigma attached to people who are experiencing an eating disorder.

Young Fine Gael Vice President, Barry Walsh, stated, “Young Fine Gael is calling for urgent action on this. At present there are only 3 beds in specialist eating disorder services. This must be increased.

“Between 1% and 2% of young females are affected by anorexia. Between 3% and 5% of young females are affected by bulimia. It is not just a situation that affects women, it is estimated that 10% of new eating disorder cases are male.

YFG TD Lucinda Creighton, added, “The numbers of people suffering from eating disorders is rising every year. Up to 7,000 Irish adolescents are currently living with bulimia or anorexia. 500 of those with anorexia will die of medical complications or suicide.

”Suicide risk among girls with anorexia is 200 times higher than in the general population. Yet there is no funding allocated to preventing suicide among people with an eating disorder”, said Creighton.
