Why HK needs to start talking about eating disorders - SCMP article and mini rant feature! :)
Today I want to share an article that is pretty cool because 1) it's about the super recent Netflix film, "To the Bone", 2) it's written by the super cool Hana, and 3) I get to have my little moment to rant about the low level of awareness regarding mental health issues and eating disorders in HK! :)
The Netflix film, "To the Bone" that follows the story of Ellen, a young artist who struggles with anorexia, has met with both positive and negative responses since its release. Nevertheless, it has had the effect of sparking a conversation about eating disorders amongst audiences all around the world, and that in itself, is something to commend. In my opinion, good conversations can rarely be carried out without some degree of conflict, especially when they are about controversial topics like eating disorders.
So please take a moment to check out this article! It doesn't matter whether you agree or disagree with the points made - what matters is that you are taking the time to explore new viewpoints!
Happy Saturday y'all!! :)
