| Abstract;Anorexia nervosa is characterized by extreme weight loss, body-image disturbance, and an intense fear of becoming obese. Personality character includes obsessive traits, interpersonal insecurity, perfectionism, rigid control over impulses and underlying low self-esteem. Anorexic adolescents have felt helpless and ineffective in conducting their own lives. Other views anorexia nervosa as a family problem, particularly maternal failures to empathy and administration resulted in the child's overcompliance with maternal wishes. The support for adolescent anorexia nervosa has focused on the psychosocial problems and the maternal-child relationship, resulted in the improvement of the overall quality of the patient's life (school works, daily activities and interpersonal relationships) and the adaptation within the familial dynamics.
