Can you still suffer from anorexia after 35?
Anorexia is commonly associated with teenage girls who are desperately trying to achieve a perceived ideal weight by starving themselves. We rarely associate anorexia with the image of a woman in her mid 30s, 40s 50s or older. Just like so many things in life, age is nothing but a number and getting to be 30-something or 40-something doesn’t guarantee that eating disorder issues are a thing of the past.

Remember that your eyes WILL reveal your age!
“Oh my God, I walked by a mirror this morning and looked at my eyes and thought I so badly needed to sleep because I looked old”
… those are the words Andrew, another gym-goer, said to me during a quick chat a few days ago.
He was horrified by how old he seemed to look because he had not been able to sleep properly. Andrew is most likely in his mid-forties (I never asked, but I’m guessing) and has a body of a demi-Greek God.
