No i dont have that disorder. But does this really count as a disorder? More like something common that happens to most students before exams...

I know few students who have developed these kind of disorders due to mainly their stubbornness. I personally, have this tendency to eat only after completion of my work, but i am no student.

Anorexia nervosa is an extremely dangerous eating disorder in which a person intentionally deprives themselves of food and can literally starve to death in an attempt to be what they consider "thin." The disorder involves extreme weight loss and a refusal to maintain body weight that is even minimally normal for their age and height. Even if they become extremely emaciated, an anorexic person's distorted body image convinces them they are "fat."

It is one type of eating disorder. More importantly, it is also a psychological disorder.A person with anorexia initially begins dieting to lose weight. Over time, the weight loss becomes a sign of mastery and control.
